September: Ava's birthday party

3 years ago a little girl was welcomed into the world and I had the privilege of spending the first night home from the hospital with her at their apartment. One Sunday in September, that little girl, Ava turned 3. I drove to Katy for the party and Ascher had a blast. He played with the crowns & jewels (it was a princess party), he especially loved the play kitchen- he wasn't a huge fan of the jump house though. 

After eating, playing and jumping it was time for cupcakes. Well they had planned for Shellie or Pamela to wear the "princess costume" and surprise all the little girls with a princess appearance...however, due to some sizing issues I was called upon and low and behold...it zipped so Lauren, Ascher's mom, became Lauren, Princess of Enchanchia. I had so much fun. The little girls were in awe like I was a real princess. It made my day to see all of the girls so happy.

Ascher's face in the background breaks my heart. 

And of course Princess Lauren couldn't forget her favorite little prince...

Happy 3rd Birthday Ava!! Glad we got to celebrate with you!
