Beach with the Cole family!

Pops, Honey, and Uncle Ty Ty went to the beach from May 27-June 5!! Frank, Ava Hayes, and I went down on the 27, but since Frank and I are both taking classes this summer, we went back home to Auburn for the weekdays and went back down the second weekend.  Ava Hayes stayed with Pops, Honey, and Uncle Ty Ty during the weekdays, which was great for Frank and I to get some major school work done and also squeeze in some time to just enjoy going to a movie together.  Here is just a few of the photos from our trip!!

Ava Hayes' Nursery!


I finally got all the finishing touches for Ava Hayes' room all done.  Since she decided to be born 7 weeks early, I had to finish putting her room together inbetween taking care of her, which took awhile.  But it is finally done and I am sooooo excited and proud of it.  The theme is a sweets shop, so it is filled with ice cream, cupcakes, and candy.
This is the view of her nursery from her bedroom door.
Here is her dresser, which use to be in my room when I was alittle girl.

 This is the mirror above her dresser.  I got many of my friends to each buy a different flavor of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream and after eating it, they signed a sweet note and their name on it.  I then hot glued them on the mirror.  This is probably my favorite part of her room.
 The counter of her dresser.
These are the fun knobs on her dresser.
 Candy Cane chair our sweet family friend Mrs. Lowry gave us.
 Fun cupcake sign.
 This is the menu above her crib that I painted.  You can't read the flavors from this picture, but they are all baby themed names.
 This is her mobile that my Grandmother made her.
 Here is her crib, which my grandmother sewed.
 Here is what all the bumpers look like.  The yellow fabric has sprinkles all over it and the blue has different desserts on it.
 This is the adorable quilt my grandmother made for her.  I love the bunny eating an ice cream cone.

 Here is her book shelf with her name at the top.  The "s" at the end of her name fell off and I need to put it back up.  I guess my hot glue gun skills aren't as good as I thought. The doors at the bottom were painted by my good friend Lauren Harris who is an amazing artist.
 Here is her changing table with fun candy jars on it.
 This is an old window that I painted pink and I put window paint on it to make it look like the store windom.  It is above her changing table.
 There is a very short hallway to Ava Hayes' room, so I put these up to look like an entrance of a store.


Here is her rocking chair, the fun pictures on the wall that a friend made, and the window treatment that my grandmother also sewed.  The rocking chair was a gift from my grandmother and PaPa and we absolutely love it.

 Here side table.
The lamp shade that her Honey (my mom) made with the same sprinkle material used on her bedding.
 By her sink in the bathroom.
 Her bathroom, not much candy inspired-ness in here, but there is two little candy jars by the window.
 Her fun knobs in her bathroom that her Gram (Frank's mom) bought her.
Close up of the fun knobs in her bathroom.

So glad I'm finally finished with it and I absolutely love how it turned out.
