RAINBOW PARTY!!!
Ava Caroline turned 7 on Sunday! Every time I looked at her this weekend I thought about that Friday morning when I woke at midnight and my water broke . . . almost 3 weeks early. We were SO excited & we had anticipated the birth of our first baby for so long. It was definitely the most amazing day of my life. I remember holding her, in shock that I had a daughter and amazed that this tiny little beautiful creature was ours! I memorized her sweet little head of blond hair and her big blue eyes. . . and, of course, the dimple. Seven years has gone by in a flash. We were so unaware during those first few moments just how much Ava would change our lives. Never a dull moment at the McCluer house, that is for sure. Ava has filled our lives with sunshine and dimply grins and girly silliness. She is crafty, funny, curious, strong willed, smart and beautiful.
The traditional "birthday breakfast in bed"
One of her favorite gifts was her 1st "Gi" from mom & dad! Such an amazing karate kid!
We had a fantastic celebration! It was all about rainbows!!
Fruit tray with "cloud dip" & the gold at the end of the rainbow!!
The fruit dip was delish and super easy. One block of cream cheese, one 8 oz container of marshmallow fluff, 1 tsp of vanilla and 1 tbsp of lemon juice. Yummy!!
The girls decorated flip-flops with balloons in rainbow colors.
They went on a scavenger hunt & found a treasure . . a rainbow pinata filled with gold!
Sweet Friends.
Ava got lots of great gifts from lots of great friends!!
Happy Happy 7th Birthday to my amazing girl!!
