Hello Everyone,

So- I know that a big update is in order. I am going to try and summarize the last couple of weeks by saying that it has been an absolute blessing...We are officially all moved in to our new home. We had an incredible amount of help, and were able to be all moved in about 3 hours! It was AMAZING! Corey and I keep calling it our palace...the house is spacious, has an incredible backyard, great neighbors, and many other wonderful things. Corey and I daily talk about how amazing it is to have been blessed with this home, and are looking forward to the years that we get to spend improving and living in it :)...Corey has been busy mowing the lawn, and I have been busy trying to continue to "beautify" the rooms with a very good friend of mine Monica. Monica is amazing! Once I post pics of all that she has done- you will want to hire her as well! It is almost at that point where it is video recording worthy, and a post will be made to our blog :)

We also had some of our favorite people stay at our home. Grandma and Grandpa Garris, along with Aunt Meggan were here recently over Mother's Day weekend, and we enjoyed the fruits of their hard labor, and of course their company. They were busy cleaning gutters, painting, planting, and mulching...admist playing with Ava :)...Ava was once a bubble scary cat, and now she has become a bonified bubble addict! The girl loves to be outdoors, and would do anything she could to stay up 24 hours a day and play on a playground, ride her new car, or simply be out smiling at others when we go for walks. We were so blessed to have our family here, and were grateful that for once in our married life they were able to stay in the same place that we live!

Ava continues to amaze us, and bring us great joy. (Of course she has her moments!) My pregnancy is going well, and I am measuring on target, alhtough I feel like a fat cow. The other day a lady at the doc's office asked when I was due...when I proceeded to tell her August, she asked if I was having twins! UGHHH!!! Come on people- show a little compassion! :)...I will hopefully post pics of the new house by next week, but until then enjoy some of Ava & family. I will also be posting video footage of Ava's first haircut & slow dance with a cute boy (AKA, Jordan Mazak)...Enjoy!

Love,
Cyndia for Corey and Ava
