Evan's birthday... and a note on turning 3

Well, let me start by saying that Evan had several wonderful birthday celebrations over the course of the weekend. Let me also say that turning 3 has been tough. Apparently, since Evan skipped the "Terrible 2s," fate would have it that he hit the "Turbulent 3s." It had to come at some point, right? I won't go into details, but I'll just say that we had some very high highs and many low lows. For your sake, I'll only show pictures of the former.



Birthday morning: the present that almost ruined Evan's birthday. After some quick thinking on my part, wire and electrical tape, all was better. If you would like to join me in my boycott of Fisher Price, please contact me for details.



The birthday shirt!


Lunch with dad at a restaurant that overlooked the runways at Hartsfield-Jackson.





The birthday dino cake!


Birthday celebration at the bowling alley with best friend Tai. We opted out of the multiple children party and kept it sweet and simple.




Post-party, the boys came back to our house and played outside in the sprinkler... they had a blast!

And, for fun, a sweet picture of little Grant who was a trooper throughout the birthday celebrations.
