Ava's birthday party

Today we celebrated Ava's birthday officially.  Here is the birthday girl ready for her night on the town.

We went to LaRosa's for her very first pizza.  She loved it!  In fact Ava ate one and a half pieces of pizza and Carter ate only one.  (We think he was saving room for his ice cream and cake.)

 

Here's the girl scarfing her pizza.  (Picture taken with Mike's blackberry, pardon the quality.)

Then we came home for ice cream, cake and presents.  (Between LaRosa's and coming home we stopped at Kroger for ice cream.  Carter was hilarious at Kroger he kept yelling "two ice creams"  and he actually danced/pranced/did the jig all the way to the checkout counter.  He was so excited about getting "two ice creams"  that he actually tripped over his dancing feet.)

So let me tell you about the birthday girl and her cake.  She LOVED it.  This girl dove in head first and there was no turning back.  Carter really didn't care for cake right away although now he loves it.  In this picture Ava decided that her hair needed fluffing or perhaps some icing hair gel.

Coming up tomorrow:  present and more cake pictures!
