Silly Laugher Girl

Ainsley, her aunt Candice and I went down to Monticello last weekend to celebrate the 1st birthday of my little nephew Gavin. I can't believe it's already been a year since he was born! Ainsley had a blast spending time with the fam and having her first cupcake :) Unfortunately my new camera's battery died the first morning I was there, and i had forgotten the charger.. so i don't have a lot of pictures. :( But here's what i do have...


My happy girl
