...A Celebration

Today marked one milestone in Ava's life.  She had her last day of 3 year old preschool.  It's amazing how fast this year has gone and that our baby girl has one more year left and will be starting kindergarten next year. 

Ava's preschool class put together a cute little program filled with songs and dances that they have done all year and a slideshow of pictures from all the things they have done.  They presented this in the gym for family and friends.  Ava had 10 people there to watch today!  Here are a few pictures from the program...

What a precious little girl!

Dancing away!

Who doesn't love refreshments...cookies and punch.

Our family...Daddy, Mommy, Ava, and Isaiah (he was a little grumpy because he didn't get the "exact" cookie he wanted from the plate).

Grandpa and Grandma Richardson, Aunt Jody, Mr. Isaiah, and Miss Ava Lynn

Isaiah taking advantage of the exercise bike they have in the classroom.  He must have been concentrating because he has his tongue out just like Daddy.
