Birthday Party!


Oh, what fun we had! We celebrated Sean's 3rd Birthday Saturday with our family and friends. He was in disbelief that the party was for him. He now understands how birthdays work and absolutely loved the attention on him!

He wanted a "dinosaur" birthday, so Graham and I worked hard to pull it off. A tradition that started with my mom, is to make the birthday cake. I found an awesome dinosaur cake pan online. We stayed up late the night before making and decorating this beloved cake. It is so fun to "show" him before his guests arrived. He had the perfect reaction and showed everyone as they walked in the door. The late night cake making was worth it! Graham says that watching "Cake Boss" has really helped his technique :) I couldn't agree more, honey. I was also able to order dinosaur invites, had my sister make dinosaur cookies, got him a new dinosaur shirt, found a dinosaur puzzle, dinosaur books, and made fun dinosaur party favors...It was really fun to get into the theme.

He got awesome gifts that he hasn't wanted to put down! He got to stay up late, and he was up and ready to play early this morning. What fun he had! Thanks to everyone for making his birthday so special. We love you, guys!

We are still in disbelief that our baby boy is turning 3 years old and not sure where the time has gone! We are proud of our little man. He is an awesome little boy with a love for life, family, and friends. We love his "big, bear hugs" and his passion to be independent. We love him so much and know he is bound for greatness.
