Lincoln is 3! (almost)

Lincoln is turning 3 on Tuesday, so we celebrated today with a dinosaur-themed party.

We invited several kids from Lincoln's class at daycare, as well as our family and friends with kids. We kicked things off with some arts and crafts - we had two kiddie tables and our coffee table filled with fun stuff for kids to create with.

Of course, no party is complete without cake. I got an awesome Dinosaur cake from Judi's Bakery in North KC. They're a local bakery and did a great job (the volcano was pure frosting...yum!)

 

We cleaned up the crafts and used the two small tables for the kids to eat at. Lincoln loved the cake - as you can see it did not take long for his mouth to turn blue from the frosting.

Guy had fun at the party, too - Joni was kind enough to make sure he had some toys to play with and stayed fed while Scott and I were running around the party. If you look closely at this photo you can see a small dinosaur hiding...we hid some dinosaurs around the room for the kids to find and take home.

All in all, it was a great party.  We were a bit worried about how our house would handle 8 kids and 14 adults, but our family room was big enough to handle it - and  could have fit a few more.  I'm looking forward to many more fun birthday parties for the boys!
