Lucky for Ava, her birthday fell once again during beach week. That means she had lots of cousins to party with her! We had a fairy party where we put sparkles on each guest, helped Tinkerbell fix her wand (pin the star on the wand), played following the leader (the lead fairy got to wear a pair of wings), and then each girl got to decorate her own pair of wings with jewels, flowers and ribbons. I asked Ava what her favorite part was, and she said singing "Happy Birthday." That definitely caught me by surprise, because she had seemed so shy and hid her head in my shoulder. It's a good reminder that every child needs lots of positive attention, even if it seems to embarrass them.
Ava, Mommy and some cousins hard at work making our fairy wings shine!

Happy Birthday to Ava! We're sorry that you're not close so we couldn't celebrate with you. I hope that life is going well and that the trek back to this coast goes well for you!
Oh, you guys are so cute! How's your summer been? You're probably in the process of moving right now. Good luck and thanks for blogging! We'll have to catch up more when you get settled.
Wow, you get the cute MOm award:) Fun party ideas. We'll have to remember them. Are you guys in Boston yet? We're hoping to visit there, apparently it's only 2 hours from CT? We'll let you know if we do. Hope everything is going smoothly with moving/ being preggo/etc.
How wonderful! What a great theme! Amelia would have loved it! What a big girl, I can't believe it!
