Celebrating Sweet Reese!

We had a wonderful time celebrating Sweet Reese's 3rd birthday with our amazing family and friends.  We had an early evening shindig where the kids made dance-streamers and danced around a bit before Reese sped through opening the presents and blowing out the candles before we all got down to eating dinner.  We all had a great time, kids and adults alike!

I'm still working on my sugar cookies, come to think of it I missed my snow days to practice on this year!

A little coloring, a little dancing, and a little crafting as we partied.

Reese sped through the presents, but that part can tend to drag on and on anyway.  She loved everything she got...and what a haul!

The kids all had fun playing outside.  It was a beautiful day so it worked out perfect to gather in the garage, serve the food from the kitchen, and then eat on the deck.

I've been trying to take more pics of Matt and I since we never seem to have pics of us together.  So here we are going through the food line.  Why not capture the moment?

Reese brings so much joy to our lives!  She is such a helper and talks constantly about how she can't wait until she is a mom.  She loves to help cook and clean and be by my side.  She's very loving and maternal and wants to please.  She's always got a smile on her face which can't help but make me smile too!
