rain, rain...GO AWAY!

It has just about rained every single day this month...it was OK the first two weeks or so, but now we are ready for summer! Poor Avery is cooped up in the house and driving me a little crazy.

We had the Clarke family reunion last weekend. (Sid's grandfathers mothers side of the family) It was a little chilly, but we still had a good time catching up. Sid's aunts and uncles were able to come visit us at home for a while before going over to the picnic and Avery just loved that! She really took to Abby and Travis (Sid's cousins) and was asking about them all week.
The only nice thing about this weather is that I have been able to do some sewing that I haven't had time for. I decided to make some gifts for birthdays coming up, and I really like how they turned out! I will have to post some pictures after they get to the birthday girls so I don't ruin a surprise :)

Avery LOVED Abby and Travis. She couldn't stop asking about them all week. I think they loved her too...

Avery loves to smell flowers, weeds too. She's not picky.

Towards the end of the day everyone was a little wet and cold. Avery was well taken care of when we could get her to sit still long enough.

Travis caught a few grasshoppers and shared with Avery. I don't think it lived too long after this.
