I'm 4, I'm Big.

 Our little, or "Big" boy Avery turned 4 a couple of weeks ago!  In fact, it was on 10-11-12, a fun date!  He had some really great times celebrating his birthday with family and friends.  He got to go birthday shopping with Grandma & Grandpa and go out to dinner with all of us and cousins.  It is his Grandpa Downs' birthday too (54), so we had a great time.  



What was the big item from Mom & Dad?  Well Avery is Brian's kids because he wanted (or atleast wanted with some pushing from his Dad) some of these:

his very own skis!  He is pretty excited about them (he went with us to get them, but thought we left them there...)  He is all ready to hit the slopes, all we need is snow...oh wait we got some last week!

For Avery's birthday party with his friends he wanted a "dirt bike" party.  We were planning on having it at the park and having all the kids bring their "dirt bikes" (or bicycles).  Well ofcourse it rained like cats and dogs that day and so we had to have it in the garage.  It was a little crazy with all those kids, but they had fun.  They did a bike course around the garage, made license plates for their bikes and played "Pin-the-Helmet-on-the-Biker."  Then we had some yummy dirtbike cupcakes and played around.  Its crazy that Avery is already 4 years old!  We love our "big" guy!
