Avery's 5th Birthday!

Avery turns 5 on Tuesday, January 12. Today we celebrated with family friends and school friends. Because of my imminent labor, we decided to hire a puppeteer to entertain the kids for half of the 2-hour party. It was a big success and a move we now recommend to all parental birthday party throwers. 



I like Zeal's look of disbelief (or near-sightedness)














Cupcakes served on a picnic blanket inside.  Chris's healthy icing idea: cream cheese and fruit-sweetened jam.

Our favorite line from Astrid to Zeal was "Every hit helps, Zeal, no matter how small!"




A precious moment captured. Zeal does not give it out for free.



Some zip-lining and then it was time to go home.
