Happy 4th of July 2010...

Layne (almost 15), Ava 2 1/2, James 8 Just some of Ava's mosquito bites from the day...

Layne playing with Ava at the Sieve's

We spent the 4th of July out at the Sieve farm. The kids played outside and inside as the weather was miserably hot and humid. Ava loved Layne and he played so nicely with her. We went out for supper in Worthington with Lisa, Roy, and Layne and then hit the fireworks there. The show was great, but the mosquitos were thick. Brad and I had a few bites, but Ava was eaten alive! She ended up with numerous bites all over back, arms and legs. I'm not sure if she had got bitten at the farm during the day, or if it was actually at the fireworks when she was sprayed with bug spray. She's only itching the ones on her legs, and doesn't seem bothered by the ones she can't reach. She really hasn't gotten many bites before, but I guess the bugs like her now.
