How can this be? My little boy is 3!

Joseph turned 3. We're glad he is in our family and are excited to see what this coming year brings for us.
We've practice blowing out candles and were delighted to have him succeed on his cake without burning his nose.
Noice the Easter Eggs on the tablecloth. Joseph picked this one out of a solid, red, blue, or yellow table cloth.
He was thrilled that this was an ice cream cake.
He also had a Disney themed cake. This is in preparation for us to visit Disneyland this summer. Our family is definitely in for an exciting year.

Happy New Year!

We carried on the tradition of going to Grandma Great's for New Year's Eve. We played lots of games and had a lovely time. Aunt DD made cinammon rolls that are in a word "divine."
Nathan actually went to sleep way before midnight, but had a hard time sleeping in the unusual surroundings. This picture was taken just after I got him to take him home. He will definitely be more into the New Year's fare next year.
Shane likes to show off his talents. It wasn't until this year that we learned that he had this one. I'm not sure what to make of it.
Joseph stayed up and had a great time with all the kids. He was really excited that he could get his "blower" to work. He went through several of them due to the slobber that accompanies blowing.
After a night of play, we had to clean up. Joseph is loves to clean up with he has a nifty gadget to help him clean up. This cow vac is the ideal size for him.
