Rainbow Party

 At last, some pictures of the birthday festivities for Ava. We always seem to be lucky with wonderful Spring weather and this year didn't disappoint. We spent a lovely afternoon outside with lots of friends running around out back yard. Ava had a fabulous day and that's all we always ask for. It didn't hurt that Nanny Jane came to celebrate with us too.

Ava had requested a "rainbow party" so we did out best to fill her up with as many rainbows as possible. Daddy accidentally let go of the rainbow balloons as we were setting up, argh.

The bouncy house is the best entertainment for preschoolers that money can buy. Ah, complete exhaustion.

 Always a few tears at a birthday party.

 And friends to make you feel better.

 Making her wish. Vanilla cake with lemon frosting was specifically requested this year and absolutely no cupcakes. She wanted a big cake for 5.
 Think we look alike? Hazel was just as excited as Ava for the fun filled day and presents. Thanks to everyone who was so generous to this little sister too. Hazel just thinks the world of her big sister.

 Rainbow birthday favors.

The last gasps of exhaustion and a bruised ankle. Next year will be a quieter year but we'll always be happy to celebrate our little girl.
