We had a family party this weekend to celebrate both birthdays and it was just the PERFECT day. We had Lai Ma, Uncle Du, Aunt Maddie, Uncle Cullen and KJ, Grandma T, Grandpa, G, Papa, Grammy plus Kathleen, Anna, Marija, Lila and Lena. We loved having everyone come stay for the weekend. Avery had fun decorating and getting ready for everyone to head over. Lai Ma made her egg rolls along with some Hot & Sour soup plus we had Pizza. So everyone was stuffed but made room for Cake and Ice Cream. We also had present overload - and both kids were so cute opening their gifts. Tay would tear something open and go "YAY" with his hands up in the air. And Avery was so excited and grateful for every gift giving big hugs and genuine thank yous. Tay's big gift was a train table and Avery got a new iPad, old fashioned gumball machine and a Betta Fish. She really wanted a dog but we are starting small and she is super excited. She named her "Seashell" and checks on her about every 30 minutes to make sure she is still alive. LOL.
Uncle Du got them a Jeep Wrangler Hot Wheels - Tay, Lila and Lena loved it but it makes Avery very nervous. She told my mom "G, I just think it's really unsafe and this whole thing is making me just very very nervous." Sweet, cautious Avery needs some time to warm up to it but am sure it will get good use once she gets the hang of it.
These are two very lucky and loved kids - My heart just felt full after the festivities. I didn't get a ton of pics as we were all busy with the party and visiting but will post below what I got. I am grateful to our family for being here and loving them both so much. Happy Birthday Avery and Tay!!
