Carson's 3rd Birthday!!!

Train Crossing Sign Party!!!!

All of Carson's friends came over to help him celebrate his birthday...

The cake table!!

Robyn came over Friday to help me with the cakes!! Thanks Robyn they turned out just like I wanted!!!!! Couldn't have done it without you!!!

Getting ready for the party. Jake doing the usual - sitting around!! Just kidding! Jake was a big help getting ready for the party!! Thanks Jake for a great weekend!!!
Carson and Jack sneaking in a few jumps before everyone came over!!!

The party favors! We gave out water bottles to the boys and purses for the girls - to put the candy from the pinata in!! We also had a train engineer hat for everyone to wear!!!

The Birthday Boy!!

We put a sign at the end of the driveway...just in case people needed to know where the Train Crossing Sign Party was!!!

Jack and daddy...so cute!!

Jack loved the balloons!!
Having fun!!
Pinata Time!! Carson got the first hit then everyone had a turn...

On Carson's next turn he broke it in half...candy for everyone!!!

Jack wasn't too sure about the bat being swung so closely by him!! (Don't worry he was safe!)

The family on Carson's 3rd Birthday!!!

Singing to Carson...
Make a wish...

Surprise!!! Happy Birthday Jake!!! Robyn and I used the "extras" from the train sign cake to make Jake a tiger birthday cake - his birthday is next week - now he has a cake to eat to celebrate his big day...and we mean big day - it's the big 3-0!!!!!

Cake = Yum!

Cake and ice cream!!!

A true Stoops...Carson enjoying Grandma Great's red hot ice cream recipe, which was a big hit!!!

Good to the last drop...

The boys enjoying the bounce house. (Thanks Shippy's!!)
"By the power of Grayskull!!" (He-man reference for those of you that weren't sure. Regan says it all the time, so Carson knows what to do when he hears it!!)

Sunday = Carson's 3rd Birthday!!!

Carson working on his canvas! Every year the boys will draw, color, paint on a canvas! We have them in the hallway by their birthday picture - I love them, it's my favorite part of their birthday !!!
Not sure the thinking behind this...
Jack's painting too!! Just kidding - he tried, but that's big brother's painting from the other day!
"Canvas!"
The finished product!!
Carson's present from Jack! A real t-ball bat and ball!!! Just for the record we got Carson a new bike with Robin and Kathy, which he has been riding for a month, that's why there's no "Mom and Dad gift"!!!



Carson hitting with his new T-ball bat. Yeah, our 3 year old can crack baseballs with a real bat. Sorry about that.
