Ethan is Three Years Old!

It's hard for me to believe that Ethan is now three years old! He had so much fun at his birthday party which was held at a local business that sells Rainbow playsets, playhouses, trampolines, and Thomas the Train items. Their retail floor has lots of fully assembled Rainbow playsets as well as 3 Thomas the Train tables and lots of Thomas vehicles to play with. My dad took some photos of all of the fun swingsets that Ethan and his friends played on during the party.
One of the Thomas tables was right outside of Ethan's party room, so he enjoyed playing with it while he waited for his friends to arrive.We had drinks, snacks, cake, and cupcakes set up in his party room.
Ethan's favorite flavor is chocolate, so he opted for a chocolate cake this year with whipped icing
We had two balloon bouquets, but sadly the huge mylar Thomas balloon popped just as we arrived to decorate. We figure it got too hot in the van on the drive over.
Ethan got a kick out of the Thomas centerpiece
Grandma G., Ethan, and Ryan before the party began
Uncle Mike, Grandpa G., and Daddy came to Ethan's party too, though since my dad and Dan were taking pictures, we somehow missed getting photos of them!

I tried three times (unsuccessfully) to light Ethan's candle. Fortunately my Dad was able to get it lit
After specifically asking for chocolate cake, Ethan ended up eating 3 funfetti cupcakes instead ;)
Ethan had so much fun celebrating with his friends!He received neat gifts that he's been enjoying a lot
Ethan's first golf set!Thank you very much to everyone who celebrated Ethan's birthday with us! You helped make his day special and memorable. He had a great time, and we hope that you did too!
