Kittens!

 A couple times a year our girls are delighted to here from Gpa and Gma that new kittens are on the way!  For Ava, my animal lover, this is especially fun as there isn't much she loves more than snuggling and hauling a kitten where ever she can.  This time the timing was especially special since Ava had just lost her favorite cat, Sparky, to the farm life.  She had loved on and cuddled Sparky from the he was little and we had one VERY heart broken girls and many tears.  So it was especially exciting for her when she found that one of the new kittens looked JUST like her old Sparky.  After some talk, she decided she wanted the new kitten named Sparky too and we're praying for a happier and longer life for this one!

The kittens for SOME reason seem a little less sure of these two . . .!?

When Kate and Olivia were around, the poor kittens kept trying to scurry behind the safety of the hay bale. : )

When everyone else finally left, Ava went back to coax her beloved kittens back out

Cuddling with Sparky

 Then with the kitten fun was over for the day . . .there was always playing Barbie with Aunt Callie!
