"Tew" Birthday Parties

Last Saturday was Avery's birthday extravaganza!  Because we have a diverse group of friends to celebrate with, we decided to do 2 parties to accommodate everyone. Avery's first party was at Dizzy's Bus Stop in Bellevue with kiddos.  We had a spectacular Spring day, upper 70 degree heat (wouldn't you know, the year I plan a party indoors).  The kids had a great time tumbling, bouncing, sliding, screaming and running.  If you haven't been to Dizzy's yet, I highly suggest you take your kiddos and check it out!  After 2 hours of crazy fun, set up and clean up, we headed back home to let an exhausted 2 year old girl nap and get ready for party #2.  We hosted friends and family over for a BBQ to celebrate our little munchkin.  We had a great turn out for both parties.  It took us a total of 3 days to open all of Avery's presents, and she has worn herself out this week playing with every one of them. 

Thank you to everyone to attended Avery's parties and sent cards and well wishes for our Sweet, Spunky toddler!  We feel truly blessed to have so many wonderful people in our lives.

Phew, that was exhausting, I was on my feet for 15 straight hours!  But so worth it!

The next day we went to brunch with the Hunt clan at the Harbor club in Bellevue.  We had a delicious brunch and stuffed ourselves full.  Thanks Grandma & Grandpa!

Andy took Avery and I out to dinner at Hectors in Kirkland, for a dinner in the sun.  What a perfect way to finish the weekend!  I hope all the Mothers in our lives had a great Mother's Day too.  Thank you to Mom Hermans and Mom Hunt for being exceptional Moms and Grandmas!
