Anna's Third Birthday

Anna wanted a Minion party this year for her birthday with her friends. 
 We ordered a bounce house, got out the water guns and let the kids go crazy! 
G and Big D came down early to help us set up and celebrate.
 I made this sign for our front door. She looked so cute and was so excited.
 Her party turned out to be pretty epic. It started storming right as everyone was arriving. After a good hour long, windy storm (that tossed the canopy we had borrowed across the backyard), the kids finally got to go back outside and play in the bounce house. The rain made the yard really muddy so everyone was pretty dirty. The kids had a great time! We definitely had to bathe and hose down everyone as they left. 
 My mom, Tippy and Alex also got to come down for the party and spend the night. My parents got Anna this Frozen bike. She had been wanting one to ride to the park like Presley and David. She learned how to ride it very quickly!
 Presley and Mal made some new recipes out of her cookbook Mallie bought her.
 Her new princess nightgown from G and D.
 Dinner and cake on her actual birthday!
She is such a joy to our family! She has so much spunk and attitude, but she is always happy and wants to be included in everything. She has grown up so quickly, it makes me sad. She is such a big girl all of a sudden. She wants to do everything Pres and David do. She sleeps great in her big girl bed, gives lots of love and hugs to all of us daily! She loves spending her days with me. We have some fun adventures. She loves going to the library, going with me to my stroller workouts, exercising with mommy, coloring, painting, running and playing outside. She loves being around our friends. She is so loving and wants to hug and kiss everyone before bed nightly. She loves having a big bed of stuffed animals everywhere and covering up with her Frozen blanket only- no sheet or comforter. She is so funny and says the craziest things sometimes. Her facial expressions are so animated and she still talks all day long! She brings so much life and spunk to our family. We love you, Anna bug and cannot imagine life without you!!

At 3 years, she weights 31.7lbs, (55%) and 37.5" (58%) long. She did great at her appointment and is doing so great at school. I could not be more proud of her! She is hilarious and says and comes up with the funniest things.
