Extraordinary Women Conference 2009!!

I attended this conference in March with Bryan's mom and his Aunt Linda. I have been wanting to post some pics, but we have been so busy with baseball lately. This was an amazing conference with the most amazing women. It was in Tulsa and I think they said there was around 2500 women there.

Here is a picture of Stormie Omartian, the author of "The Power of a praying wife". She was so good!!
Here is a pic of all of us with Angela Thomas.

My very favorite author!!!! Karen Kingsbury!! I was mostly excited to see her!!

Angela Thomas teaching!

We also saw Mandisa. Chonda Pierce(she is hysterical), Kathy Troccoli and many more. We has a great weekend and came back so revived!

Love is in the Air!

Ava got her first flower from a boy yesterday!!! Now let me remind you she is 3! She was so proud of her beautiful roses (there actually plastic tulips) that she has to take them to gymnastics with her.

More Valentine's Day Pictures!

Ava looks pretty rough in these pics, It looks like she had lots of fun playing outside earlier that morning! :)

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Wow, It has been so long since I have posted! We have been busy around the Cartwright house. We have been traveling a lot the past month and Bryan is finally getting ready for baseball season! It is like a holiday in our house!! Ava has been very busy with school and gymnastics. She is a wild woman out there doing her flips and jumps and she loves it. I am adding some pictures form her Valentine's party at school. Hope everyone is doing well!!

Santa Baby!

Ava loved Santa this year. I think she might have a slight crush on him even. She just talked and talked to him. She even complimented him on his outfit! Santa came to our house early this year because we are having to travel so much. She was very disappointed in the morning that Santa didn't stay to see her. She was truly upset!

Ava's First Day of School!

Here is a picture of her with her teacher!
Ava started school this Monday! She is going to a 3&4 year-old program at Bryan's school. I thought she would be a little hesitant the first day, but she wasn't. She is loving it and I love that Daddy is right there with her. It is a great school and I know she will have a great year!

BIRTHDAY PICTURES!

Bryan's mom made this for Ava for her Birthday! Isn't is fabulous!
She had to wear one of her presents during cake time. She is so funny!

Blowing the candles out.

Here is a picture of the bouncer! I just love this invention!

She had a blast jumping all by herself before her party even started.

I just loved her cake. This woman did a great job!

Here are some of Ava's Birthday pictures. We decided to rent a moon bouncer thing and it turned out to be a hit! I recommend it for Birthday parties for sure! It kept the kids entertained the entire time. Most of Bryan's family and mine were able to make it. We are so blessed to have such amazing families! They are always there no matter what occasion. Ava is very loved by them all and it shows since many of them traveled far to be there.
