Happy Birthday Averina, The Great Eight!

Averina is EIGHT! Unbelievable! She's growing up too quickly! We had a fun day celebrating her! She had a Daddy/daughter date while Brown Eyes, Mattie Faye, and I cleaned house (we are big partiers!). Afterward it was a ride the horsey turned dog pile, followed by a visit to see Grandpa and Grandma Great! We then rounded out the day with cake and ice cream, thanks to Papa and Grandma Berry, the traditional Berry/Erickson birthday song (yes, Mattie Faye and Averina love our voices), and Averina getting spoiled with presents! We sure love Averina! 

Since Averina is now eight, she'll get baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Days Saints next Saturday. We are so excited for her! To learn more about what baptism entails click here. 

More pictures next week to follow her special day! 

Brown Eyes and Mattie Faye folded their arms while Averina opened presents and then promptly asked where their presents were...

Papa decorated the cake! Who doesn't love Swedish fish?
