birthday and pooled out

Had a fantastic day yesterday! Tay's birthday party went well and everyone seemed to have a good time. One downer: the splash area of the pool was closed because of the drought we're having. It was a bummer, but the kids looked like they still had lots of fun in the kiddie pool with all the toys I brought to try to compensate for the main attraction being closed. Uncle Steve's water gun contribution was a big hit, thanks for bringing it! Guests snacked on cheese pizza, veggie sticks and watermelon and then it was "chocolate cake with dora on it" time. Taylor did a great job blowing out her candles! She opened presents after cake and got some really wonderful gifts. After everyone left, I threw myself in the pool with exasperation: it's hard work being the mommy at your 3 year old's birthday party!!! Got to hang out with Uncle Steve and cousins for another hour before cleaning up and taking everything home. Good times... =)

Sharing some pics from the big day:

Taylor had neighbor friends, school friends and family at her party.

Uncle Steve, Aunty Suki, Naomi and Jonathan gave Taylor this big girl Dora bike that she just *had* to check out before it was time to open presents
