For Avery's birthday, I finally convinced Jake that we needed something for the kids to do out in the backyard. We either needed a trampoline or a swingset....well, we got a tramp for Avery's birthday. Josh and Jake put it together the night before and we surprised her the next morning. She was so cute and so excited!
Being pregnant, the thought of doing a birthday party sounded like A LOT of work. Needless to say, it was! I wanted to go somewhere where we could just have the party and they would take care of all the monotonous things and we could come home to a clean house. Well, there are just too many little kids in our neighborhood, and I didn't want to leave anyone out and the cost of taking a lot of little kids would have been way out of budget....so we stayed home and had a Despicable Me party! You would think that because the second one had just come out, they would have party supplies with the logo on it...ya, not! There wasn't a single thing. And because I had left it until the last minute, shipping would have cost just as much as the supplies itself....so....I made them myself! My ankles were so swollen and I was so exhausted from being on my feet all day, but hopefully she will enjoy it!
