Birthday Weekend

We had AK's 4th birthday party at our house on Friday night. My parents and Tracy came to stay the weekend and really helped make everything special for her. She wanted a princess party, especially Rapunzel ("with the long hair"). 9 of her friends came for the fun. I thought he cake people did a good job replicating Tracy's party invitation on the cake.

These cute barrettes made by Tracy were given as favors.
Each child had a request for with part of the princess they wanted to eat!
Bouncy fun!
Michael was mobbed and beaten several times.
Time to blow out candles. Ava Kathryn is sporting her signature color.
Presents.
Total chaos in the playroom.
the next morning (her real birthday) at her birthday breakfast. Gigi and Grandpa gave her this adorable fuzzy friend, which was made by Tracy.
Meme and Pawpaw gave her this MSU shirt made by Tracy.
The evening entertainment was provided by the birthday girl herself using her new band equipment from her daddy. She will start booking dates soon so make your reservations now!

Fun at Grandpa and Gigi's

Yummy! Ava stayed with my parents for 4 days and they had so much fun. Mom introduced Ava to Shirley Temple finally! She has only been compared to her for her entire life!
It's always fun posing on random fire trucks!Up in a treehouse!




Prairie Arts Festival

Tracy had a booth at this arts and crafts festival in West Point. Her booth was so cute. She sold a lot too. Not bad for her first show! We had a good time visiting and it wasn't as brutally hot as it could have been.
Ava really liked this frog.

My birthday

Yes, I'm now 35. On the plus side...I now have an ipad! Can you believe AK was able to keep that secret?
