On Sunday, July 15th we woke up excited and ready to celebrate Ava's 7th birthday a day early. We picked up her ice cream cake, packed up yummy snacks, put the party goody bags together and dressed...

 ...in our party clothes to head off for...

 ...Jungle Quest for an active and adventurous birthday party with Ava's 8 closest friends. First the girls and Dylan and his buddy Jackson, watched the safety video, got harnessed up and then they were let loose for...

...lots of climbing and... 

 ...swinging fun.

 Thanks Ava for showing your brother how much fun (and safe) it was to jump off the bridges and slide on the zip lines.

 After the first jump he was hooked. So fun.

 May all your wishes come true...

 ...Happy Happy 7th birthday Ava. Glad you enjoyed your party.

 Monday morning, July 16th Ava officially turned 7 and it was time for another celebration with opening presents and a fun bowling day with Sharona, Dylan and me. 

Happy Birthday from your Sharona! Thanks mom for coming down for Ava's birthday for such a fun day of bowling.
