Cars and Dora…

…doesn’t get much more random than that!!! The kids are totally into Disney Cars (Lightening McQueen and Tow-Mater) and Sav adores Dora- so we incorporated both into their 3rd birthday.IMG_0380

 

 

That’s about as much decorating as I do. After that first year of going all out, I don’t plan on doing it again until the kids can actually start remembering their birthdays! Ha—jk….well, kinda.  It was a small family affair this go around.IMG_0381

 

 

The kiddies picking out their birthday cupcakes: Ethan, Drew, Ben, Sav

Here are those precious Tarrant twin girls. LOVE THEM! Almost as much as Bennie loves his firetruck… IMG_3962

 

 

Drew- cruisin’ around in the Cozy Coupe. The cars will be staying inside the house until these 107 temps drop! The Texas heat has been absolutely UNBEARABLE!

And as if the party couldn’t be any more fun---our dear cousins from Georgia came to spend the night with us (to finish off the last leg of their Texas tour). Ben, Doreen, Andrew, Ethan, Candice, and Sav.

These beautiful ladies get to love on my triplet cousins all the time! (Their son/brother: Jackson- and his wife, Jill, were blessed with trips about a year and a half ago! We are dying to get the kids together!)

 

Loved your visit and made me miss you guys even more than I thought was possible! Georgia/Texas family reunion 2011- lets make it happen! LOVE YOU! xoxoxoxoxoxo

 

In this picture, the time was about 8:30pm and the kids were enjoying a tasty popsicle to round out their birth-day. They did not go down to sleep until 9:30pm or so---and that was with NO afternoon nap! I couldn’t believe it. Bed time was madness and mayhem with raging fits-o-fury and intense sugar crashes.

All-in-all, it was a wonderful weekend with family and friends! We look forward to continuing the celebration with the Steeces soon. Thanks again for all of the birthday wishes!

cute birthday post! i LOVE the last picture. three of them are sitting upright focusing on eating their popsicles, and then there's andrew (i believe) looking so relaxed/bored, leaned over with his elbow resting on the table, multitasking with a popsicle in one hand and playing with a car in the other. it really shows how much they are growing up!
