Birthday Celebration- Part 1

Ben & Kate turned 3 on Tuesday, August 31. Every year on their birthday there are bittersweet emotions for me- happy they are getting older, sad they are getting older! Every year brings new skills, joys and adventures and I can't wait to see what year 3 brings us!

Their birthday morning started off with a special birthday breakfast of berry pancakes with whipped cream and candles. (They got to blow out candles 3 times that day!)


It was a school day so I got to come have lunch with them and watch their class sing Happy Birthday and blow out candles #2!



Ben did not want to wear his birthday crown. Look how happy he is as the kids sing to him! The school has pretty strict rules about celebrating birthdays- no outside cupcakes. The teachers provide Little Debbies. The kids sure didn' t mind though!

That night we had a birthday dinner at Chili's with cakes and candles #3! After we got home we gave them their presents from us- a grocery store, cash register, games and pillow pets!


Stay tuned for a recap of their Splish Splash Birthday Bash!



A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun.  Enjoy the trip.  ~Author Unknown
