Party!!!

Yesterday was the 1st Annual Torres Kids Birthday Celebration! We decided to do one big family party for all three kids since their birthdays are only a few weeks apart. I think it went very well! All three were very happy and had a great time! The boys were especially happy since this was their 3rd party...they had a "kids only" bowling party back on 6/28...then on their actual birthday (7/12) they had a special day where they could do whatever they wanted (skatepark in the morning w/Dad, movie in the afternoon w/Mom and dinner at Chili's in the evening)...and now THIS party...presents at all three parties too...they certainly made out like bandits this year!

We had the party in our backyard and had about 30 people attend. It was a gorgeous sunny day with a nice breeze to keep everyone cool. We had yummy food (most of which was made by Nanny...thanks Nanny!!) The kids received tons of great toys and gorgeous clothes. We had cookie cakes for the boys (their choice), a big pink princess castle cake for Ava (which came soooo cute) and a big bowl of fruit for dessert. After dessert little Miss Ava took a nap and the big kids had a mean game of kickball followed by a water balloon toss contest. It was quite a battle! So all in all I think it went very well and fun was had by all!

Here's some pics from the day...you'll see Ava in her pretty birthday dress...you'll see her adorable birthday princess hat (supplied by Nanny & Papa)...you'll see a little girl digging into her chocolate cake and loving it...you'll see the massive piles of gifts...you'll see Ava loving on her Guatemalan doll that Craig & I bought her...you'll see a pooped out girl laying on the floor at the end of the night...and the last picture is Ava this morning having breakfast trying on her hat just one more time! Enjoy...
