Happy Birthday to Our Three-Year Old Imp


Photo-A-Day #3515

Today our little guy turned three. He got his first birthday wishes at five am when he came and woke us up. He was so excited that it was finally his birthday. Allison changed the sign on our back door to say Happy Birthday, Andrew. He then added his own flourishes to it as well including a 3 and a B and a few other things.

Later in the afternoon we went to my parent’s house for Thanksgiving. We had it early this time around to celebrate Andrew’s birthday and this was the date that worked for the whole family. We had a very nice afternoon with everyone. It was good to have everyone home and together especially as the family continues to grow. Four grandchildren in the house was pretty entertaining for everyone.

It was back to work tonight and we were having a pie sampling party. I brought a Mrs. Smith’s Pumpkin Pie and pumpkin patch ice cream, cool whip and pumpkin loaf cake. I brought everything for people to enjoy pumpkin patch parfait like my previously posted Sweet Potato in a Pumpkin Patch recipe.

Andrew’s Sugar Rush Cake

We celebrated Andrew’s birthday with friends today. We had our friends Holly and her kids come over for pizza and cake. Allison made an amazing cake with the theme of Sugar Rush or rather Wreck-It Ralph. She made a double-decker yellow cake with gummy worms, M&Ms, jelly beans and gumdrops. The cake was great.

We had a really nice time with the kids. They played well together and enjoyed the meal. Andrew received a very nice Fireman’s costume and a giant fire truck puzzle. It was about 4 feet long and perfect for Andrew and his love of puzzles.

Andrew also received some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Half-shell Heroes toys. These are some cute toys for younger kids. I wrote a review of those toys over on Cooper & Kid.
