So it has been awhile since I have blogged. My trips have gotten me out of whack. Avery's fourth birthday was on Monday. He had a hard time trying to decide if he wanted a friend party or just a family party. In the end, he decided going somewhere fun as a family would be best. He told me next year when he turns five he can have a friend party. He is funny how hard it can be for him to make up his mind (even when it comes to choosing a treat), but I am glad he enjoys his family and likes to hang out with us. I hope it stays that way. We started off the day with some sparklers (which Avery was pretty excited about), we went to the Hands On Museum as a family, talked about when Avery was born for FHE, and opened presents and ate cupcakes (by request) to end the night. His primary teachers even dropped by, delaying his bedtime and bringing another gift, so he was really excited to see them. I think Avery had a good day.
Avery told Anson he could open one of his presents if he would be a googah for the day. If you remember one of my other entries, Anson
hates being a googah. However, to my surprise, Anson was quick to agree to the idea. He gladly went all day on Monday being a googah, and to my surprise once again, Avery gladly let Anson open one of his presents at the end of the day. Avery was even excited for Anson to open a present. They got along splendidly for most of the day. If only Anson would be a googah every day:)

SO CUTE! It is so fun to hear about your kids. I LOVE IT! Anyway, what a fun day for Avery. I just love your family! Katie is Kaden's Nursery Teacher. HE LOVES HER! He calls her Sister Mort. There is another lady there named Morgan. He asks (all through sacrament) for Morg and Mort. It is cute! GOOD TIMES! Your family is DARLING!
Yea! Happy birthday to Avery! Sounds like a fun day. We haven't been brave enough to do a friend birthday party yet. I love the family parties. I love that the primary teachers came over! What cute kids you have. I wish Joseph and Avery were still close enough to play together. I was just looking back at my old pictures of them as babies.
