Hooray Beach! Happy Baby! Always checks to see if things are edible Loves playing with Aunt JB

Talking with JB VA Beach Boardwalk Ava loved it!

VA Beach Fun I LOVED the Elvis Festival! Sidewalk Chalk contest He was an accurate Elvis This was my favorite sidewalk Elvis Summer is in full swing at the Valdez house. Greg is now in a California Desert with his class learning how to drop bombs in the Super Hornet. He is working 12 hour days in 115 degree heat! He at least has been able to cut loose on the weekends by going to San Diego with his friends. We miss him terribly and are so proud of him. The old saying has remained true with "while the husbands are away the wives shall play!". Two of my girlfriends came to visit me this weekend, Laura and Jane Berry. We hit the beach and had a wonderful time. Ava hated it the first day but adapted the second day. She decided she loves sand but still hates the Ocean. She has become amazingly efficent at rolling these days and has decided not to crawl. She is like a little secret agent rolling around the apartment quickly without making a sound. She is starting to like more foods each week which has made meal times more enjoyable. Becca, Ava, and Penny are gearing up to drive to Marietta Georgia to visit her family for a few days. We are looking forward to hanging out with the Cones and Fulchers. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
