lauren is 3!

on the 27th of april, lauren turned 3. since her actual birthday was on a tuesday we decided to wait and celebrate on friday. this year's theme was princesses, and the colors were the ever popular pink and purple. she had 4 friends in attendance this year ian, tegan, kiera and katie. the party started at 1:30 with the opening of the presents. that lasted about 5 minutes then one enthusiastic party goer cried, "where's the cake?" i thought instead of just having cake i'd make cupcakes and let the girls decorate them, after all we had 2 hours to kill. i have to say they all did a great job with the cupcakes. their sugar intake was rather high, but hey, it's a party!

one of lauren's gifts was a really neat battery operated bubble blowing machine (thanks, t and a, i hate blowing bubbles!). it worked really well and the girls all had a blast. they popped bubbles until all the solution was gone. all in all the party was a lot of fun. however, after everyone had left i realized we had forgotten to sing happy birthday to lauren. (i had made a cake with the left over cupcake batter just so we could sing and blow out the candles.) so that evening daddy, ryan and i serenaded her. and then she and i both got some spoons and had one last birthday treat.

happy birthday, lauren! we love you!
