Our Little Artiste!

At the beginning of February I was desperately craving some good BBQ!  In Tracy, the best place I know is Famous Dave's. Since it was almost Valentine's day and the restaurant was having a children's coloring contest.  Sophie and Avery got their pictures and in between bites starting coloring!  Avery being 2, wasn't taking it very seriously, but since Sophie was doing it she wanted to do it.  At the end of the meal, we went to turn in Sophie's entry, trying to get away with not turning in Avery's since she had gotten BBQ sauce on it, but she wanted it turned in so we did!

About a month later, I got a phone call from Famous Dave's saying we had a winner!  AVERY!!! She won in the 2 year old category! (I think she might have been the only 2 year old who entered, but hey...a winner's a winner!).  We got to go have dinner with Wilbur the Famous Dave's mascot and Avery got her dinner free! It was a lot of fun and Avery was so proud (and to her credit, Sophie was very happy for her sister!).

Here is her winning entry:

 And this is her and her Dad with Wilbur!

By the way, Wilbur's cousins tasted really good that night! :)
