MU vs KU Women's basketball game

We met our friends from Kansas at the basketball game. Mom and Dad forgot to tell me they are KU fans. I thought we didn't like the Jayhawks???

But I am always up for a picture with my best friend - Truman!

Cotton Bowl - Dallas, TX

My Mom & Dad went to Dallas for four days, I stayed with Mimi & Pops.


They went to a Tigers practice at the Cowboys stadium on Sunday morning before the game. Coach introduced Mom to Chase Daniel and told him that she loved him! She was really embarrassed. But she is so proud of this picture???



This is the gang that Mom & Dad drove nearly 20 hours in a mini-van with to Dallas and back. Ryan, Jay, Jeff & Greg.











They went out to Billy Bob's...
My Grandma Barb & Coach got out on the dance floor.







Darcy & Kevin were also in Dallas.

I guess there was a Cotton Bowl parade that Mom & Dad went to, I am sure that I would have loved it! Truman, the cheerleaders, and the Tiger band was there.










Grandma Barb & Coach are watching the parade.

I watched the Cotton Bowl game on tv with Mimi & Pops but I never saw
Mom & Dad. The Tigers won big!!

Christmas 2007

This is Christmas morning...
I got this new Leapfrog game from Santa AND we got a Wii!


Me & my cousins Emma, Katey & Lane are smiling for the camera.













Santa actually came to my house again this year!!! I got to open the door for him, it was fun. He left in a truck??? I guess the reindeer were resting.













I got this sled from Grandpa Bill, it worked perfectly on the hill in our back yard. I was going fast, fast, fast!!

Avery's 4th Birthday

I had a Disney Princess 4th birthday party! I even dressed up in my Belle costume to open presents...












Me and Mom were climbing at Bonkers, she can't get around as fast as me in the maze.

October 2007

Happy Halloween!! I'm a little pumpkin. We picked a really bad night to go to the pumpkin patch, it was getting ready to storm, really bad. But I got a cute picture, with my CURLY hair and all.







This was at a Tiger spirit rally at the Mall, Truman had time to pose for a picture with me. I am sure he is my best friend, he just doesn't talk...
Go Tigers!!! We went to the Tiger's football game, Katey got to go with us. I always love to cheer M-I-Z-Z-O-U.

August 2007

This is me and my Aunt Darcy.












Our two cats - Molly (black cat to the left) & Kat (siamese cat below drinking out of the fish bowl). Both of them absolutely LOVE me! The always meow in joy when I pick them up and put my jewelry on them???

July 2007

We got to pet the new baby horse that Lilly's Uncle brought up to the house, it was kind of scared but we were very gentle!











I went to my friend Lilly's house, she let me drive her gator some more. I really am getting better! They didn't let me have any passengers though.











My Daddy's friend Matt got married, I got to dance, dance, dance... & eat cake!












I just love to play in the sand.














We went to the Lake to see Grandma Barb's family, I got to meet lots of my cousins!!

June 2007 - Kevin & Darcy's Wedding

I requested my favorite song, Life is a Highway. I was a dancing girl all night!! I got to dance with Kevin for $1!!!

June 2007 - California vacation

Disneyland -

We had so much fun!! We seen every princess there ever was... the best fireworks display there ever was... & more people in one place than I have ever seen! So the year of a million dreams is so true!! We were sure to have a camera, pen and paper to get all the characters autographs and pictures. We were pros at spotting them, standing in line and posing by the end of the third day!

This castle seems MUCH bigger in the pictures.







Belle from Beauty & the Beast, isn't she beautiful?






Universal Studios - Hollywood







Katey & I got our picture with Shrek & Princess Fiona after we watched the Shrek 4-D movie. Donkey sneezed on us in the movie, yuck!

San Diego Zoo

Look at this big bear, he is pretending to sit on a bench, that silly polar bear! His water was really cold...

Thinking this hippo was asleep... you don't want to upset him.
I hear they can be dangerous.

Seaworld - San Diego




We both picked up star fish... don't do that everyday in Missouri!! Katey was scared at first, but I showed her that they are nice.




Katey fed the bottlenose dolphins, we watched her.

Swimming at the hotel was great fun, there was a kid pool and a nice big pool too.

Our hotel was on the beach of Mission Bay but swimming in the pool was the way to go!
I did collect sea shells on the beach, they are my number one souvenirs.

May 2007

Grandpa Bill took me to an Airshow, I got to see lots of cool stuff like parachuters and ride on a school bus! I am driving a helicopter with my pet dog.















My cousin Lane is giving me a lesson on hitting the ball. He is great help!










I found these beautiful flowers in my aunt's flower pot and decided to pick them for my Mom.




We went to a Barbeque at the neighbors house on Mother's Day, it was very bright so we had to wear our sunglasses.

April 2007

I'm so cute in my new dress.















I found Easter eggs filled with candy all over my yard on Easter morning!





The Easter bunny hid lots of eggs at the park and he was
there to watch us hunt for them. It was soooo cold we had
to wear our winter jackets!

March 2007

I'm very happy since the weather has been warmer,
I get to ride my bike outside. I can go really fast!!

I am getting a new do, so my hair won't be so wild.

My friend Addison came to visit me, I was singing a Wiggles song to her.
