Zach's Surprise Party

Zach turned 30 on Monday but I decided to throw him a little surprise party on Saturday. I only did family because he already told me he didnt want a big surprise party for his birthday. I figured maybe just a family one wouldnt make him as mad he he... and I was right :) We planned on going to dinner that night to eat his favorite.. WINGS & watch football. He had been asking tons of questions that day so I finally had to tell him we were going to eat with my parents instead.. Little did he know when he walked upstairs both sides of our family yelled SURPRISE. He had no idea!!! It was awesome and he LOVED it!! We had such a great time. Happy Birthday Babe.
We love you bunches & bunches :)
now on to the pictures...

Meet the Teacher

Last night we had parent orientation at Avery's preschool. They had a nice dinner, a speaker, and then headed to meet the teacher to see what the kids would learn. Today we headed to meet the teacher for Avery. At first she said "mommy dont leave me at school today" but by the time we were about to leave she didn't want to leave. She made herself right at home playing with babies & cooking in the kitchen. I only hope that she does good on the first day next week. She really likes her teachers this year and was alot more comfrtable than last year. what a diffance a year makes. I can't wait to see how much she learns this year. My baby girl is growing up too fast.

Catch up..

A few weekends ago was Zach's grandpas birthday. We had a party for him at the nursing home. He looks so good and was happy to be there to celebrate with him. He told Zachs mom he was so proud of Avery. I just loved hearing that from him. It brought tears to my eyes.
Happy Birthday Dad. We love you!

That same weekend we went to visit my parents and had lunch with them and Shelly, Mark & Kenzie.

 Aves riding her bike

Speaking of riding bikes, Avery got a new barbie bike from Shelly & Kenzie for her birthday. Avery LOVES riding her bike. We ride bikes almost everyday after dinner and she HAS to ride with her Babries in tow. She is my little speed racer. :)
