Out and About

One of the nearest and dearest places we travel to is Costco. My mom and I took Aviana there yesterday, and she had the best time. She was holding her head up the entire time, and looking at anything, and everything.

Maria, her favorite sample lady came over to visit with us. Since Aviana came home from Guatemala, Maria has always held her close to her heart.

We let Aviana snack on all of the samples. Her favorite was the potato salad.  It felt closer to "our good old Costco times" than it has since the accident. I know, we're crazy about this place.  It's sickeningly a place where we bond over wholesale items ;o)

I'm happy I remembered my phone. I must have taken about 27 pictures of the little pumpkin!

Costco was very special to sissy and me too, she hated going there but I would still drag her there :) Great pics of the two of you.

  3. She looks awesome in these photos! It must feel great to get her out and doing the normal things like going on a Costco run! (by the way, I love Costco, too. And Target. And The Container Store. Those three stores always make me go over budget!)
