First Bite of the Season

Last week we had a relatively nice day outside, so we had the kids play in the backyard while Joey and I were in the front cleaning out the car, rolling the hose, etc. Maybe 10 minutes past before I heard yelling and Cooper screaming that Ava had ants on her. She came around the corner crying, I picked her over the fence and sure enough, even though the warm weather really hadn't arrived, the ants had. Ava seems to have a sweetness to her that the ants can smell, and they got her, her first bite of the season.
