What a wonderful end to the holiday weekend!

Today we took Ava to Van Saun Park and got to ride the train and see some of the animals there. Ava got some time on the playground and finally got used to the swings. After a day at the park, we headed to Grandpa and Gamma Tracy's for a BBQ. We had such a nice weekend with family and friends and great weather!
