Rogers' Family Reunion

Today was the annual Rogers' Family Reunion. Bradley and I switch reunions every other year and this year was his year. His family meets at Reelfoot Lake and eats lunch at Boyette's. After that, we always head over to Aunt Mary's house for dessert. This year was the first year Ava attended the reunion and she was antsy. Since she has started walking, she is so independent and just wants to get down and run around. She was getting fussy so we left the lunch early and took a stroll around Reelfoot Lake. If you have never been, it is a very beautiful place. It was definitely hot today and the water level was very low, but it was still pretty. It was Ava's first time there and she just kept looking around taking it all in. After a walk around the dock, we went into the museum to cool off and they had an owl in there. Ava just kept looking at him but was very unsure. She was really cute though!

After that, we headed to Aunt Mary's who had some delicious homemade banana pudding and Ava just went wild for it. She was like a little dog running from person to person begging for pudding. She slept most of the way home and then I laid down on the couch for a nap and she laid on Daddy for a nap.

This upcoming week will be extremely busy because it is fair week. Bradley will be working most nights at the fair booth, so I am not sure how much blogging will be done. I am hoping to catch up on some older pics and the remaining birthday pics. No promises though because I will pretty much be a single mom this week. Anyway, have a great Labor Day!

She had just noticed the owl in this picture.
