49/365

Today was the BIG Birthday Bash!!!
The day started with Avery getting to have a special day just with daddy since he had to work on her "real" birthday.  All she wanted to do was go to the "Big Toys R Us".  She told us earlier that it wasn't fair that she had never been to Toys R Us before.  So that is where she got to go. 
Brian was planning on getting her the "light up yo-yo" she seemed to want yesterday..... but a daddy can do a little better than that.

All it took was a sparkle in a little girls eyes when she saw this bike and that was that.


 (aren't daddies the greatest?  they work a lot like grandma's come to think of it)

Then the party.  
My oh my did we have fun.


The party would not have been as awesome if it weren't for one of our favorite friends Ellory.  She came over and painted all the girls fingernails AND was the brave soul who taught 11 little girls a dance that would be "performance" ready for their moms in under an hour.  
Ellory.... you are amazing!


All the cute little dancers dancing to Hoedown Throwdown from Hannah Montana.
I was too busy to take picture of the other events... but the girls got make-overs which included sparkles in their hair, sparkle lip gloss, fingernail painting, sparkly rings and tu-tu's for the girls dolls.  All the girls go their own mix CD with some of the coolest tween music ever!
Then we had dance practice, made body glitter, played games, and opened up presents.  This was so cute! The girls were all so polite and we had so much fun taking pictures of all the girls with Avery.



And of course there was cake.   (my kids get jipped... I know it's ugly.. but the barbie skirt did match Avery's skirt... so it was a sortof personalized)


One of the best parts of having your birthday over is the "tearing down the sign"
This was my idea so we didn't have these dang signs up for weeks on end because they didn't want to get rid of them.  Now the kids look forward to getting to crash it down at the end of the night,


Love ya Aves... I'm glad you had a wonderful Birthday Weekend! You are the BEST!!
