Happy 2nd Birthday AVA!!!

WOW! It is so hard to believe that our baby Ava is already 2!!! Where did the past 2 years go? Ava Elizabeth is such a sweet little girl and she will always be our baby no matter how old she is!! She has the most amazing laugh, loves to take her big sisters toys and run (gallop actually) with them just to hear Emma squeal! She is definitely our "sassy" little girl!!

We had an unbelievable weekend of fun with family and friends. G-ma Lor Lor flew in from Phoenix for the birthday festivities and we had a blast! Ava was super excited for her birthday party to finally be here! She was yelling "my friends, my friends" as people started to arrive and a permanent smile was on her face for the day. We had a giraffe party and G-ma and mommy made the cutest giraffe cake! Dad and Lor Lor made some delicious cheese quesadillas for the kiddos and awesome tortilla soup for the grown ups.

Ava loved hearing the "Happy Birthday" song just for her and big sister Emma helped her blow out the candles. The kids enjoyed playing pin the tail on the giraffe but the giraffe limbo game was the hit of the day. I think Ava just liked holding the pole and hearing the giraffe laugh at her! She was so cute opening her presents with the biggest smile on her face. Just like big sister, Ava received a big girl tricycle for her 2nd birthday. Check out her sweet ride! We think she might need a black leather jacket to go with it.....ha ha!

Thanks to all our wonderful friends and family for a fabulous day! We are so blessed!!
Happy Birthday Ava E!! We Love You soooo MUCH!!!
