Ava's Birthday!!! She's THREE!

Ava got a Little Mermaid costume from the Egbert's and had to immediately put it on, and it's in her FAVORITE color, pink!

Holly, Jasper, Kai and Varick gave Ava a My Little Pony and it's Purple, her second FAVORITE color! She loves to do its hair, but of course, not her own hair, that's off limits!

She got a pink princess cake and was too afraid to blow out the candles. Mitch had to do it for her. Maybe it's all the warnings we've given her about dangerous fire! And of course, Amelea is so pleased that her sister is THREE and that she gets to eat cake, mmmm chocolate, her favorite.
And, last, but not least, Amelea was so pleased that the paper just kept coming and coming. Very enthralling to a 9 month old!

Amelea looked beautiful in her ivory dress. We had to scramble to find ivory tights this year, though.
Ava was quite the dancer! Went all night and finally crashed at midnight.
More dancing with Daddy.
My sister's beautiful family.
Wearing me out!

Ava and Amelea getting into messes!



















Ava's our Montana State girl. She got dressed up in Uncle Mark's sweatshirt so she'd be warm when we went up in the plane. She thought it was so much fun, as she loves planes, but fell asleep almost as soon as we got up in the air.


















Ava and her pilot's headphones.

Brooke and Billy got married on Dec. 30 in Townsend, MT. Ava had a blast dressing up like a princess and danced the night away. She wore out Aunt Summer, Mom, Dad and both sets of Grandparents making us all dance! It was a really fun night for everyone. We loved seeing all of our family and friends and miss you all.
