Ava's 7th Birthday

My little Ava turned 7 on November 19th. She is such a sweetie with a tender heart. I can't believe she is 7 already! For her birthday, she wanted her party at a bowling alley. So that is what we did. She invited a neighbor friend and my mom, Jason and his family met for dinner and bowling. She was soooooo excited about this party. She talked about it for weeks. Luckly, it didn't dissapoint!




Here am I. For the first game, Ava beat everyone, even all the adults!


I attempted to make a bowling ball and pin by grouping the cupcakes together and frosting them. It satisfied Ava, and thats all that mattered!

This is a pic of Ava coloring with the present from her Uncle Paul and Aunt Jackie. How we wished they lived closer!




David and Natalia. David had an app on his phone that made a person look fat, so he was taking pictures of everyone and showing them what they would look like fat. It was so funny!






The little girls used this thing where they just put the ball on it and pushed it down. Ninny really enjoyed bowling.



Payden. For some reason I don't have a pic of Michaela bowling, but she thought that Ava's win had something to do with the kiddie bowling thing, so she was using it too!





Ava getting ready to let go.




We ate pizza, and then Ava opened her presents in between bowling. It was loud and crazy, but she loved it. She got mainly art supplies, which she was over the moon for. Everyone knows that this kid loves to draw and paint!










She told me her favorite presents were the ream of printer paper and her La La Loopsy doll. She thanked me for that doll over and over.



I made her a dress for her 18" doll, which she hasn't looked at since. Oh, well!



Then it was time to blow out the candles and have cupcakes and ice cream sandwhiches. After that, the kids went to the arcade in the bowling alley to earn some tickets and get little prizes. It was a fantastic party, and I am so glad Ava had such a good time.





Happy Birthday, Ava!
