Happy 3rd Birthday, Chase!

We celebrated Chase's 3rd Birthday with a Jake & The Neverland Pirates Birthday Party on February 2nd!  He was so excited about his birthday party this year!  We talked about it every day for weeks.  It was such a fun party!  Thanks to everyone that was able to come celebrate with him!  He had a blast!

The morning of his party, he opened his first present from us.

It was all of his Jake gear for the party!  He was so excited!

"X" marks the spot!

I made his birthday cake, and I was so proud that it turned out so cute!

Lala & Tom were the first to arrive.  She jumped right in and dressed up like a pirate too!

The food table (not all of the food was out just yet).

The cupcakes from Ann Olivia's were a huge hit thanks to the cute toppers made by Houston Sign Design !

The Pirate Ship that we made for the party was also a huge hit!

Loved the Jake & The Neverland Pirate Ship stickers. Thanks Aunt Tina!

The Tattoo Parlor, Get Yer Loot and the Hidden Treasure were a lot of fun as well.

The weather ended up being nice, so we were able to open the garage door when the party started.

The Water Balloon cannon (made by Didi) was the biggest hit of the whole party!

After everyone took a turn swinging the stick, the older boys punched the piñata to bust it open.

Landon's fist went through the pinata.

CANDY!!!

Present time!

After all of the presents were opened, the party ended.

On Chase's birthday, we spent the morning going through all of his Birthday Mail.

He loved finding money in some of the cards. 

He loved the musical cards too!

Later that afternoon, we gave Chase his big present from us.

It's his very own basketball goal!

He couldn't wait to put it together.

He helped Daddy put the whole thing together.  He loved adding the sand.

He shoots....he scores!!!

He's not quite tall enough, so we brought out the small brown chair!  Perfect!

After supper, we celebrated with cupcakes!

He smiled (again) the entire time we sang to him!

I can't believe our baby is 3!!!

Blowing out his candle!

Chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing...his choice of course!
