Happy Birthday Dear Avery!






Avery celebrated her 8 year Birthday at The Lion House courtesy of my mom. My mom booked this party a year in advance sine the parties here book up quickly. Needless to say, Avery has been anticipating this day for a year. It was so fun to be with her and her close friends and cousins. They got to pull taffy the way the pioneers did, play pioneer games, dress up like pioneers, have lunch and eat her Lion Cake. There is a story that goes along with each birthday cake baked at The Lion House. The chef throws a gumball in the batter and bakes it with the cake. If you get the piece of cake with the gumball in it, you will have good luck for a year! No one got the gumball at the party, but Avery found it the next day while having left over cake! At the end of the party, the birthday girl gets to choose a porcelain doll from the mantle. Avery chose a darling doll and all the girls were jealous and sad they want to have their birthdays there too. It was a lot of fun. Happy Birthday Aves!
