Finally!...I have finished this post, only a week late. We had a busy week, last week, celebrating Ava's 3rd birthday. We had the usual backyard bash with friends, family, burgers, etc. Here is a look at our "Week of Ava"... 
Daddy arrives home after work with flowers for the birthday girl.
Daddy also brings presents, from coworker (thanks Farzine!):
Friday night, while eagerly awaiting Me-You + Grandpa's arrival, the girls get to open Ava's big present...a blow-up water slide. Ava was SO excited!
The girls help, and anxiously wait, while Daddy put up the new slide.
Me-You + Grandpa finally arrive....with MORE presents! Ahhh, my house is filled with toys!!
Even little sis gets in on the gift giving
Aunt Lisa puts her Master's degree to use putting the Barbie pool together.
Ava's gift from Mommy + Daddy, her big girl bed. It's even comfier than ours!! (Oh, and just for future reference, the wooden slats are sold SEPARATELY at IKEA...don't even get me started!)
Grandma (Me-You) gives Ava matching sundresses for her + her baby doll, Feefer.
Grandpa shows Livi how to jam on the keyboard.
Getting ready for the party.
Aunt Lisa did the cake this year, at Ava's request, a unicorn...fantastic job, Lis!
Thanks to all of our family + friends for helping Ava celebrate her birthday, she is truly blessed to have your love. She had the time of her life!

I owe you a seriously apology for missing Ava's birthday party... We TOTALLY FORGOT! I am so sorry!!! Mitch got in town from a week away in Detroit the night before, and I was a hostess in a couples baby shower for my sis-in-law that night. My brain was overloaded, and I simply forgot:(
I'm so sorry:(
It looks like a great time. Maybe the Lawson and Longs can come to one of those cookout on of these days!

Did you make that cake, supermom? That slide looks awesome! What a fun birthday. Here's to 3, Ava!
So you missed the picture of me pushing Livi under the water? Thanks, really, cuz you made me look like a good aunt! I'd hate to follow it up with my water episode :)
