Good company
In celebration of Ava’s birthday weekend, we had a number of family members come down to stay with us. Jess arrived on Thursday afternoon and immediately set to work making favors and decorating cookies.

Katie, Mom and Dave arrived that afternoon…


And Doug, Karyl, Gramma and Grampa arrived late in the day.

Josh and Laura joined us that night, too. We had a full team on deck for Saturday morning party preparations, which included taming the wildlife…

Mixing bloody marys…

Entertaining the children…

Setting the tables…

And cleaning the kitchen repeatedly.

It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you have such willing partners!
