David Turns Three!

I can't believe it, but my boy has turned 3 years old! He is growing so fast! The last 3 years have been so wonderful and I can't imagine life with out this little bundle of joy. He is such a blessing to us. It is so much fun to see his enthusiasm for life! He is such a good little talker too and I love hearing all the things he has to say.
We threw him a party with some friends tonight and he was SO excited I can't even describe it really. We did a Mickey Mouse theme because that's the show he watches and loves. And I have a friend who has recently gotten into cake decorating and for now only charges for ingredients. So I asked her to make a Mickey Mouse Club House cake for David. It was awesome! Didn't she do a great job? Thanks Megan! And it was delicious too! =)


When David finally saw his cake(which he'd been asking for desperately ALL day) he tried to take a big bite out of it. It was pretty hilarious. You can see in the pictures how excited he was...
The first thing we did was Pin the Nose on Mickey. I had fun making it and the kids all seemed to enjoy playing it, so that went well! After David saw that he wasn't on the nose, he took it off and placed it correctly. So cute.

I guess this is what Sydney looks like from Scott's point of view. Scott took most of these pictures.

The other game we played was "Pass the parcel" or atleast a variation of it, and the kids had fun with that one too. It's where when the music stops the kids holding the ball of wadded paper gets to take off a layer, and each layer has a treat inside. Sydney and her friend in the middle didn't actually play, but of course had to be a part of it. =)

Beginning to open presents...


I know this one is blurry but I loved David's expression as he shows his Daddy what he got.
He'd just eaten a hershey's kiss. Must've been good!
Blowing out the candles...

I had David pose(kind of) with his friend Tanner because they hardly see each other any more now that they've move a little further away. They had a lot of fun with those balloons and actually in this picture David was trying to tackle Tanner at the same time. I think that's why he looks so much shorter. I mean he is a little shorter than his friend, but not that much. And I was very lucky to get it in the split second they were both looking at the camera!

Thanks for sending the pictures. We had lots of fun. That cake tasted so good. Lucky you have the whole bottom left. Well, maybe not so lucky at the same time. :)

Happy birthday David!!! Looks like it was quite the party, what an awesome cake! I can't believe he's 3. It doesn't seem that long ago that we were celebrating his first birthday.
