Happy Birthday Grandpa

We spent the weekend at my parent's house because it was my dad's 62nd birthday. My dad wanted his birthday to be very low key this year. He wanted takeout from Chili's and the Oreo ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins. My mom and I left early that morning to run a few errands and then ended up at Toys R Us. Dad had seen a few pictures with Ava doing some science experiments and had asked where we purchased the kit. Mom and I decided to buy him a few different kits because dad really is a big kid at heart. After we ate and had some cake Dad opened his gifts. Ava seeing the familiar looking box asked Grandpa to open it promptly. Dad tried to act like he wasn't as excited as Ava but once he opened it and started seeing what all the kit included he was eager to give one a try. He chose this kit which included breaking hard sand uncovering the bones of a T-Rex. It's times like these that Ava will be able to cherish forever. Here are a few pictures of Ava, Grandpa and Grandma at work.
