Last Friday night was a big deal for Ava. She was introduced at the Flower Mound High School football game by my cousin, Lyndsee, who is on the drill team, the "Rosettes". They played at Texas Stadium too, very cool! We've been building this up for Ava for quite some time; to go to a football game to see Lyndsee dance. She has been SO excited, and talked about the big day a lot!! Unfortunately, it came during the time we have been battling sicknesses in our family, but we didn't let that stop the fun! Ava was such a trooper; I know she didn't feel 100%, but you might have never known that night. To add to the experience I spent the previous week making outfits for Ava & Livi. To be honest my steam was running out by the time I finished Ava's, Livi's was not all that I had hoped it could be, but I think she still looked cute & I'm glad I did at least a little something for her. Another bonus was that a lot of our family came to this game, including my younger sister Lisa that flew in for the weekend from Indiana. Lisa was a huge help in getting the girls ready and getting to the game in one piece; thanks, Lis! The game didn't even start until 7:30 pm, practically Ava's bedtime; but every now and then exceptions need to be made, and this was the time. Ava was so good, she loves our extended family and embraced them all...especially my cousin Steven:

Ava enjoys some popcorn:
And she cheers for the Jaguars with Great-Aunt Lynne Dee:
At the third quarter (well past bed time) Lyndsee introduces Ava to the rest of the drill team...our big moment! Poor little Ava was pretty tired at this point, but still got excited to be so close to Lyndsee and all of the girls:
Bari Lynne, my cousin & Lyndsee's mom, carries Ava back to our seats. They made her a cute little Rosette bear to remember the event...Ava refers to the bear as "Steven's bear" for the next week, until Mommy finally gets through to her that Lyndsee gave her the bear...sorry Lynds! But thank you SO much!!! What an honor!
Aunt Lynne Dee walks us to the car where we get the girls in their jammies for the ride home. At 10:30 pm we are finally home, greeted by Daddy and go straight to bed. The next morning we are off to Gainsville, Texas to see our niece in her first collegiate horse show. More to come....
