Happy 5th Birthday Avery Jean!!!

Yesterday was a big day for our Avery.  She turned 5 years old.  Hard to believe how fast 5 years have literally flown by.  Seems like it wasn't that long ago when we took her along with us to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary.  She was only about 1 month old at the time. Avery has shown us how smart, sensitive, beautiful, artistic, resourceful, and lover of all things nature.  She is growing so fast and we are so glad that God has given us this wonderful daughter to raise.  Happy Birthday Sweet Avery!!!

We started the day off by making smoothies and having pancakes.  We quickly got ready so that we could make it to Sweet and Sassy for Avery's fun little makeover.  She got her nails, hair, and make up done.  Lots of glitter, sparkles, and cotton candy smelly stuff sprayed EVERYWHERE!!!  She loved it.  We took her to some garage sales and she bought a few things, then went to lunch at Red Robin.  They sang Happy Birthday to her and gave her a sundae.  Unfortunately we were not prepared for that, so we did not get any photos.  We then opened gifts and had cake & ice cream at home.  I think she had a good day even though she didn't have a "party". 













How many more times do you think they will leave the mall hand in hand???




The lighter ran out of fuel....

Oh no, what do we do?  We don't have matches or a lighter!!!  Aggghhh!

Lets light napkins in the toaster to get a flame...

That ought to work!

Come on daddy, hurry up with that flame!

Seriously, we need to get this cake cut!!!  I am tired of waiting!

Night!  Night!!

  2. Happy birthday Avery. You are a precious little granddaughter and we always love to see you come to our house. It looks like you had a very special and fun birthday. You look pretty with your hair and make-up on and so grown-up.

    We need to teach daddy to be a better example...gpa and gma didn't teach daddy to light the candles that way. Hope nobody was watching.

    See you soon.

    Love,
    G & G
