Surprise!!!

Saturday evening we went to my aunt Linda's house
for a birthday party. Not just any birthday party,
but a surprise party.

Linda was the guest of honor, she turned 60 right around
Christmas time and decided to celebrate half-birthday style.
She put together a 3 day birthday extravaganza.
On Wednesday she golfed & then hit up the casino.
Thursday we all went and volunteered at the food bank.
She was wrapping things up with Friday,
a day of massages and a Ticket to Ride marathon at her house.

Little did she know that her wife Kim had planned a
surprise party for her on Saturday.
It was kind of a last minute gig but with about 4
days of planning she had at least 60 people show up!
Pretty impressive turn out.













Super fun party, great food, fantastic weather,
wonderful friends & family,
total hit!

I can't think of a more deserving recipient then my
wonderful aunt!

Ava's party dress is so pretty and white-did she keep it clean?!?!?

At one point I handed her the most huge plate of watermelon not even cut up, just shaking my head at my disregard for the white dress. She only got the smallest drip on part of it. I was pretty impressed. :)

She faked interest in the beginning but soon it became apparent that the child was a little hopeless, to say the least. Throughout the year that followed I realized that this strong willed child would need a little more time, as well as mom backing the heck off. Before she turned two I came across a blog a mom was writing who made a bold statement of parents simply being lazy if they aren't potty training their kids very quickly. I was so mad about when I read that but also felt like maybe she was right all at the same time. It motivated me to simply take away Ava's diapers and sort of force her into being ready. I spent the entire day encouraging her as she had accident after accident. She managed to pee in her potty about 4 times and everywhere else about 347 times. I was so stressed out, so was she. At one point she peed on the floor and looked up at me
