Birthday Parties EVERYWHERE!

Not only did Mike celebrate his birthday this weekend, so did two friends! Alyson from Ava's school turned 3 and Braden turned 2! We kicked off the birthday party tour at Chick-fil-a this morning at 10am! Never thought parties started that early, but with young kids I get it. This was the first party Ava attended for a friend from school. She is at the age now where the invites start...we are inviting her class to her party as well. :)

She had a great time hanging out with Alyson outside of school. She was really excited to hang out with the Chick-fil-a cow! I thought she would be afraid, but she wanted to hug him and give him high-5 all the time. She even asked him if he would come home in Mommy's car!! She also played her first party game, pin the tail on the cow. Suprisingly she did great even after being blindfolded and twirled around. Her tail is the 2nd one on there towards the back legs of the cow. Here are a few pictures from Alyson's party:

A few hours after Alyson's party, we loaded up to go and visit The Wrights near The Woodlands. Their son Braden was turning 2! He had a Mickey Mouse party. Ava had a great time playing toys and talking to lots of new adults...and making some of these complete strangers read to her! She is something else. Here are a few pictures from B's blowout:

Now in just an hour or so we are off again to have another celebration, this one is for Mike. Dinner with his parents...I think I will leave the camera at home for this one...we are all a little worn out!

Happy Birthday again to Mike, Alyson and Braden!
