Happy Birthday Luke!

Luke turned 3 on Friday and had the "best birbday" according to him. All day he kept asking me if it was still his birbday and all that he wanted (besides that $50 Buzz Lightyear, that we definitely did not get him) was for his friends to come over for a Dumbo's Circus party.

Showing off his new crocodile boots and making some very interesting faces!

The Dumbo's Circus party.

The kids playing the Elefun game.
Pin the feather on Dumbo's trunk.
Dave drew the picture of Dumbo for the party one night while I was at Young Womens and was super proud of it. The next day Luke kept commenting on how "perfect" the hat looked... I am thinking that Dave was boasting about that one to him.

Luke with his cute buddies. Max, Samuel, Ashton and Tate.
Pinata time.

Ashton was the only one smart enough to stay with the goodies!

This was Luke's excited/kind of embarrassed face that he made every time someone sang Happy Birthday to him.
I especially like Linsy and her Mom's cute faces in the background. Note to self: learn how to frost a cake!



I made one of those rainbow cakes and I have to say it was so fun to make. It made me so happy and icing tints were the key to the bright colors. I would make it again any day, except now that I think about it Luke didn't even eat one bite of the actual cake!



Max, Annie (Luke's crush), Luke and Benji. Thanks to all of our friends for coming, it made him soooo happy and thanks for taking the pics Leslie.

For some reason later that night we ended up at the Olive Garden. We were planning on going to Hershey Park in the Dark to go on the rollercoasters and go trick-or treating but it was rained out so we ended up here instead.

Luke kept making a weird Popeye face when the Olive people sang to him and I never knew that they give you a huge, yummy cake for your b-day!Then we went home and opened some more presents.




Luke on his very first birthday. Everything about the day of his birth was perfect. It was the best day of my life and I am kind of mad at him because I told him to not get big! I love the burrito baby.

But he is so fun big too. Luke, not that you can read, but you are such a sweet boy and you make our lives so much happier. You are such my little buddy and I love everything about you!!
