3 Years....3 Parties

We did not have an official birthday party for Blake.  We instead had 3 little parties.  Which, at this age, was perfect.  We had one with our family in Oklahoma, one with our Houston family on his actual birthday, and one with his class the following Monday.  All parties were so much fun, and he felt well celebrated.  Our first stop was Oklahoma and here are a few pictures from there.....

 Ok -this wasn't the party, but this is what a 3 year old does.  Act like a Crazy Monkey! :)

Our next stop is home with our Houston family.  Dad, Kathy and Uncle Robbie came to town Mother's Day weekend/Blake's real birthday weekend.  They got to watch Kimberlyn play soccer and score 4 goals.  Woo Hoo!  Then later that evening we had Blake's birthday party.  He had a lot of fun.  Since it was a small focus group - all toys got lots of attention.  This was a big Thomas year, and a good year for it.  He loves Thomas the train even more than ever now (at 2 he liked the show more, at 3 it is all about the toys).  This boy just loves all things automotive.  He is a all boy, and that is by his choice.  Here are a few pictures from this party...

Then our third party was at school.  The school party was so much fun as well.  His friends were all there b/c they were going to school anyways.  :)  It was great.  Tresia started out with the book "Annie's Solo Mission" to the class.  (This book is from Little Einstiens - his parties were a combo of themes b/c Little Einstein items were hard to come by).  Then we had the leftover cake from his birthday on Sunday, and then they were off chasing balloons with paper plates on sticks.  Who knew such a simple idea would bring so much joy.  Of course we had to play the song "Mack in the Highway" while playing.  (aka Life is a Highway)
