The Fighter's

One of the first times I met some of our favorite friends from Columbus, people were teasing them about having a "family cheer" to spell out their last name (complete with moves to spell out the 5 letters).  I remember laughing with them then...and 9 years later...we're still laughing!  They came up for a quick visit, and it was so, so, so good to catch up.  One of my FAVORITE moments...watching Leah stuff dessert into her mouth.  She could not get enough, fast enough (my kind of girl).  The pics below make me laugh every time I look at them.  She has the best facial expressions!!  Love her!!  I also love the one where Ava is watching her sort of like "oh my gosh...what is this girl doing??"  Kristin...this girl obviously needs more dessert:-)  We love them...they are the best!  Let's hear it for K-A-L-A-N's! 

Between Ava and Doug last night... Ava: "Daddy...when I get married one day will I not live at home?" Doug: "Well...you'll live with your husband...but you have to come back here and visit mommy and I all the time." Ava: "Why?" Doug: "Because we'll miss you bunches and will want to see you..." ....melting my heart...love the dad/daughter dynamic going on in this house:-)
