Quiet Day and Pictures

We had a quite day today. Mom & Ava stayed in the room and played. Ava did venture upstairs with Dad to play with one of the other babies.

Kurt went out to the "mall" and picked up some items that we realized we needed. It is a mall like the ones we have except prices are negotiable, but the prices are very fair so negotiating was not necessary. The mall is next to the lake, which is very nice at night. Kurt made friends with the hotel staff and is looking forward to learning some games tomorrow "in the back" of the restaurant (puzzles not gambling - mom :). Kurt is enjoying the food and is getting to know the manger pretty well since he is the one who fixes the Internet connection when the server is acting up.

We have attached a new set of pictures. Thank you for all of the comments after viewing our blog - it is good to hear from our family and friends. Tomorrow is a big day - we have our first INS interview.

Hey you guy 3 I see every one is doing fine,Ava looks fantastic and is quite a pretty little girl. She is very fair and her skin doing wonderfully! A bit fussy on the trip huh? She has a wonderful surprise waiting here, car seats and snow suits, I never did know a child that liked long trips. I wish I could have strapped on the feed bag with Kurt, my kids all like it and will drool reading this article. It is cold out here now, single digits at night some times and snow. Can you just imagine Ava's face seeing all this new stuff? That will be fun to watch. Well take care and see you later,
