Little Lady Turns THREE!

Three Years Ago...

How has it been three years since this little girl was born - time sure does fly by when you are having fun!

  

Nine days in the NICU and then we were homeward bound!

So little - so sweet!

Brianne's 3rd Birthday!

Fast forward three years....and she has grown so much!

On Brianne's birthday, we celebrated by walking to a nearby restaurant for dinner.  Little Miss Independent was not going to sit in the stroller.

And Little Miss Independent was not going to hold daddy's hand as we walked.  :)

 After dinner there was cake and presents! 

The cake was a little beaten up....considering that it had been in the container on the table and Bryce was apparently ready for the birthday festivities because he managed to snag the cake and carry it out to the living room to me....thankfully it just gave the frosting a little more character and it was still delicious - just a little banged up!

To heck with the fork - getting down to business!

Pajama Party Celebration!

Brianne's party was held at The Hills Church where they host fabulous parties in their multi-level playscape.   The kids had a blast running around and we had bagels and donuts on the menu.

The party coordinator attempted to get all the kiddos lined up for a group photo...pretty sure that is an impossible task - but we humored her and tried to get everyone in the picture.

Birthday Girl's Donut!

I had to giggle at how most of the donuts were eaten.....frosting devoured - and then donut abandoned. 

Bryce had a pretty interesting donut eating technique.

Bryce was in donut heaven....after Brianne headed back to play, he moved in on the Birthday Girl's sprinkled leftovers!

A big thank you to all of our friends that came out to celebrate with us!  We are thrilled to have so many wonderful people in our lives who helped shower our little gal with love!
