Family, friends, cupcakes, and presents
We hosted Brandon's third birthday party at our new house instead of our usual location at the local park, since we now have the room (and I had the courage to be the hostess). Let's just say that hosting stresses me out a little.
I will admit, the weather was great, the kids (and adults) had fun, and the party went well. We had ~35 people over (mostly family and a few close friends), I made six dozen cupcakes (I am now pretty good at decorating cupcakes, thanks to Wilton for the decorating accessories), and we had Eegee's for lunch. Delicious!
Brandon actually smiled for the camera while we sang "Happy Birthday", but didn't seem that interested in opening gifts, much to our surprise. He was so interested in gift opening at Christmas that I figured he would be in heaven on his special day, but he was so focused on the first gift he opened that we practically had to rip it out of his hands and bribe him to continue opening the rest (with everybody staring at us). Guess it's par for the course, with a three year old!
Brandon insisted on taking a nap with his new Shop-Vac!!!!
Thanks to all for coming over to celebrate Brandon's 3rd birthday and for all the wonderful gifts!!!
