Princess Party!

For Ava's Princess Party, we invited some of her little friends from school and the neighborhood. Each of the girls got to dress up as their favorite princess. Ava and one of her friends were Princess Belle, 3 of her friends were Rapunzel, and one was Ariel. They all looked really cute! We had a surprise guest Princess, Princess Belle. She came and spent some time with the girls. She read them stories, sang to them, did a craft with them, and played games with them. The girls also got to take their pictures with her. They all had a great time!

Ava turns 4!

I can't believe she is 4. She is growing up so fast. She is in Preschool two days a week (and loves it), dance, and swimming lessons. She loves to dress up, color/draw, read, play with dolls, and LOVES to do hair. A couple of weeks ago, while we were driving in the car, she asked me if she could get her ears pierced. I said "sure", thinking she would just forget about it. But one thing about kids, they never forget, she kept bringing it up. So after several attempts of trying to talk her out of it, and telling her that it might hurt, she got them pierced. I was so proud of her, she didn't even cry. She is also very proud of them, and loves to show everyone.

First day of Preschool

Ava showing off her earrings!

This past weekend we celebrated her birthday with all of the family. She got way too much stuff and loved every minute of it. I asked her what her favorite presents were and she told me her unicorn pillow pet (thanks Kara), and her hair stuff (by hair stuff, I mean a pretend curling iron, flat iron, hair dryer, and brush.) She loves to just sit in front of her mirror and do her hair like "mommy does!" She is my little shadow, she loves to do everything I do.

She is also going to have a Princess Birthday Party with some of her little friends on her actual birthday this Wednesday. It should be fun! I'll take some pictures and post them too.

Happy Birthday Ava Loo Ha!
(that is what Cash calls her, and she hates it. So funny!)

The extreme.

There is nothing like going from warm short wearing weather to freezing parka wearing weather! It is totally not cool and I wouldn't recommend it. But, that is exactly what we experienced coming home from California. Ava liked building a snowman so that was a bonus. I can't wait till summer!

Wild Animal Park

For our last day we decided to go to the wild animal park. It was a lot better than the San Diego zoo. We got to see the animals out in a big field. It was cool to see how all the different groups of animals were together. We went on a 25 min ride through the park to watch them. Sadly we are on our way home now. It has been fun and we created a lot of memories.

Disneyland 3 days done!

So we decided to go back to Disneyland for 1 last day. There were still quite a few rides the kids didn't get to do. We hit the Buzz Lightyear ride... which Cash loved. We hit Its a small world... which Ava and Cash both loved. The kids got to talk to Crush the Nemo turtle. They also got to meet Buzz Lightyear. Overall I think the kids loved Disneyland.

Sea World

Ok I have to admit sea world was not near as cool as last year. The shows were shorter and not near as good. However I think the kids had a great time. There was a playground that the kids absolutely loved! We got home earlier and gave the kids a chance to go swim!
