Happy Birthday Avery!

All the kids loved playing on the cornhole boards.

Avery and her friend Hannah.
Avery shouting "I did it!" after running off the cornhole board.
Rich and I made and decorated the cake! We were pretty proud of ourselves! Growing up my dad would often decorate our birthday cakes for us and we thought that was so cool, so I'm glad Richard has decided to carry on that tradition for our kids.
What can I say except GO BUCKS!

Opening presents and ot wanting others to even THINK about taking them.
So yesterday was Avery's second birthday. I can't believe she is two already! Where has the time gone? She had a great day and a super fun party, she was in heaven with the hotdogs (she ate 4 of them, she kept stealing them from the other kids, gross, I know!) and loved having all her friends there and presents to open. She had practiced blowing out her candles all week, I really think the practice paid off, don't you?

Thanks for the cake compliments, but really I have to pass them on to Richard. He did most of it!
