Dance Recital

Another dance recital in the books! Ava did so good, I am so proud of her. These pictures and videos are from the dance rehearsal.

More Branson

Our next two stops in Branson were Ripley's Believe it or Not and the Grand Country Fun Spot. We enjoyed seeing all the unusual things at Ripley's and Ava loved the arcade at the fun spot.

Butterfly Palace

While in Branson Ava and I went to the Butterfly Palace. It was really neat!  There was lots to see including a mirror maze, science center, banyan tree adventure, butterfly aviary, 3D movie, and shopping.  The aviary was the highlight!  They give you little tubes of nectar to hold and the butterflies will come to you and you can watch them drink the nectar!  Avalyn also got to participate in a butterfly release.

"Very Important Pup" Party!

After the show Ava and I attended the VIP (Very Important Pup) after party! Ava got to meet Ryder, Chase, and Skye. There was also a toy area, reading lounge, and several other photo ops. She left with a Paw Patrol bag full of snacks and goodies!

Paw Patrol LIVE

Paw Patrol LIVE was great! Ava loved it and so did I!! The show followed a race between Adventure Bay and Foggy Bottom. Of course, Mayor Humdinger tries to be sneaky.  The pups use teamwork and problem-solving to find clues and help Mayor Goodway complete the race. It included all the characters from the show as well as the popular songs.
 

Chelsea's Wedding

Avalyn was so excited to be a flower girl in Chelsea's wedding!  Gavin and Ava were SO cute! The day ended up being perfect for an outdoor ceremony.  Congrats to the newlyweds.
