Happy, Happy 3rd Birthday Grant!

Grant is 3. It is hard to believe Grant is really 3. We have waited a long time to have a 3 year old. Much longer than 3 years. There was a time not long ago that I couldn't imagine it ever happening. The beauty of life is...it goes on.

Grant wanted a fire truck cake for his birthday and a party. I have never made a birthday cake before. I debated asking my friend, Christine )a master at cake decorating) if she would do it. Then I decided, what do I have to lose. If I try and it doesn't work out we can always go to Publix and buy one. Well it didn't turn out too bad. It wasn't perfect, but Grant was thrilled and that was all that mattered to me.

He was blessed to have 6 of his closest friends come to a play date party at his favorite place, the "house park". He was a happy boy! And i loved watching him go up to each of his friends to thank them for coming to his party.

O' the gifts! Grant got some good stuff. A power wheels, fire trucks, a clock, kite, books, bubbles, game, a fire station, etc. I am not sure what we are going to do with everything, but you only turn 3 once right?

Happy Birthday Grant!
