Ethan's 3rd Birthday

Well the countdown calendar I made did the job...Ethan has been excited for his "dirthbay" for WEEKS! Yesterday the big day finally came and it was a big partay!

I stayed up late decorating the house the night before his birthday. When the birthday boy came downstairs he yelled, "what in the world!?" as he saw these decorations. And from that second on he was revved up!

For breakfast he got pancakes and to open gifts from grandparents!

That night some of our friends joined us in "Radiator Springs" for a fun party!


We played "Can you find the Piston Cup?," "Pin the wheel on Lightning McQueen," and "Bowling with Mater for Tractors." We ate yummy snacks and visited with our friends. This video shows Clark and Caden playing "Toss the baby through the tire."

Then Ethan got to blow out the 3 candles on his cake. This video shows how excited he was, he sang, "Happy Birthday" to himself before the rest of us could start.

Then the birthday boy got to open some great presents! He loved everything!

Caden was more excited about the present he gave Ethan than the birthday boy. (He didn't even cry when Ethan accidentally swung it into his head later in the night).

A new firetruck! Yahoo! Life can't get any better for this 3 year old!

This morning I showed Ethan the pictures from his party and he said, "please momma, can I go to that party again?!" What a fun celebration of a fun little boy!
