Saturday we had Avery's 3rd birthday party. I'm glad I was distracted by the party and missed out on watching the poor showing the Irish made against Navy. The party was a lot of fun and guests got to take home goody bags of candy-which everyone, even adults, seemed pretty happy about:)
Some candy centerpieces.
More candy:)
The birthday banner and decorative candy pieces.
Natalie and Matt talking to Jake on skype! We were so glad Jake's girlfriend and best friend were able to come celebrate with us. Technology is awesome! Jake stayed up very late (say, 2 o'clock in the morning) to skype in for the whole party! Everyone got to talk to him and he stayed through presents and cake:)
The kids watching some Dora.
Avery loved the #3 sparkler on her cake. It was pretty cool, but I had to keep her from getting too close trying to blow it out!
Spencer got some books (from mommy and daddy) and a little toy drum (from great grandma) as "unbirthday" presents.
Opening her Leapster 2 from grandma and grandpa wetmore.
Showing Uncle Jake her pillow pet. After she'd open a gift, she'd run over to Jake to show him and tell him all about it:)!
Very interested in one of her cards.
Getting Uno Moo from Aunt Cimmy and Brian!
Looking at pictures of herself with Great Aunt Beverly, Great Uncle Ron, Great Aunt Bonnie and 3rd cousin, Lauren.
Giving cousin Garrett hugs good-bye!
The birthday girl and mommy after one very long day! We had a great time with everyone and so thankful to have family and friends who wanted to celebrate our princess turning 3!
