We seriously cannot believe that our sweet little Avery Jean just turned 5…where did the time go? Because she's in between friends (going to a different kindergarten than any of her preschool friends) AND she's had a party every year we decided to pass on the party and just have a dinner with family. Avery got to choose and she chose "Vitality Bowls" (thick smoothies with granola and honey thanks to our great friend Britney). We were joined by Nana and Pop-pop, Auntie Erica (with Malachi, Ezra, and Nora), and Jen and Brian (with Mackenzie). Avery had swim lessons on her birthday too so we were able to bring some yummy treats with us for her to share with all her little swim friends. Overall she felt very loved and was so excited to have people there to have dinner with her.
I (Haley) was at work during the day so right when I got home we had a quick family birthday party before heading to swim lessons and dinner...
Closing her eyes while we walked in with her presents singing:)
We got very creative with her wrapping:)
We told the people at Vitality Bowls that it was her 5th birthday so they made a 5 out of fruit on the top of hers…she thought it was the coolest!
After dinner the Morlan's joined us for some Coldstone (in case you haven't heard, Avery is IN LOVE with Brian, she can't get enough of him!) Avery always gets the same kind of ice cream as Brian…cotton candy with gummy bears:)
Here you can see a bit of her sass…the look in her eyes says it all!
Andy maybe our favorite family picture taken to date!
Lastly Auntie Meghan and Uncle Jimmy brought her some amazing packages from all of the family in Oregon so we got to have a second birthday party on another day, it was so great. Thank you everyone for making her day special:)
Happy 5th birthday sweet girl…you changed our lives in ways we didn't know possible. We love you so stinkin much!!!
