Pre-Party

The only picture in her actual "birthday outfit," she changed when the first guest arrived and about twenty times thereafter.

Helping MOmmy fill the pinata. She was supposed to put smarties in it- we later found the rings that were supposed to be party favors in it too:)

This year is the first that Avery really got into the party planning. She chose the theme(it varied between Nutracker & Barbie Diamond Castle for about 3 months, the latter finally won out.), made the guest list (25+friends, new and old, 3 & under), picked the cake, and even helped with the gift bags.
