Let the Fiestas Begin

So Chase doesn't turn three until the first but we have already had two birthday parties for him. I know we have gone overboard with all the parties but the "friends" party was actually just a lucky break on our part. My dad bid on a Backyard Adventure party at a UVSC Athletics auction and won the bid so Chase got to benefit from his winnings. We invited all his cousins and a few friends some from Little Gym class and others from play groups etc. Anyway, we had a great time. Basically it is an indoor playground with a huge backyard play area. The kids just ran around sensless while the adults got to sit in the eating area and mingle. I definitley recommend this place for future use.



Today we celebrated party #2 at Grandma Chrissy's. He had a blast and got a little spoiled. Brooke gave him a "frog catcher" as he calls it and Brooke will be happy to know he said that was his favorite. Kelli and Brian and the gang gave him a really cool Jack Sparrow sword which he is very excited about. Grandma and Grandpa gave him a fun water table for the backyard-- which he insisted we fix right away. He played with it for a half hour in our bathroom. (It is too cold to go outside today-- we woke up with like 2-3 inches of snow which is still there now.) He also got a cool outdoor chair and a teeball set which he got right to work on as well. All in all he is one lucky boy to have such good friends and family who love him. Thanks to everyone who shared in one of his three days. (We will celebrate with Grandpa and Grandma Bum on his real birthday which is Tuesday.)
