Tristan's Birthday Party

I am feeling like a really bad Mommy at the moment, not to mention a bad blogger, since here it is, November 23rd, and I still haven't posted about Tristan's 3rd birthday party...which happened to take place oh let's go ahead and say it...a month ago!!!!!!!! Oh well, better late then never...and at least I am just late on the actual posting about the party, not the party itself!

So, anyhow, I'll get right to it. This year we had Tristan's party at the local gymnastics place, which happens to be one of his favorite play places, so he was super excited about his party. And, since we were going to to be going to Disney for his birthday I decided only a Mickey Mouse themed party would do, which only made him even more excited. The two things he happens to like most at this point in his life, both together all in one day...he was in heaven!! Not to mention a cake with candles he got to blow out, all his friends, and presents too!!!!!!!!

I think this was really the first year he understood and knew enough about birthdays. Last year he was still a little too young and started to understand the concept a few months after his 2nd birthday...too little too late for his 2nd birthday and a long time to wait until his third! But, he made it and he reveled inthe anticipation. We talked about his party for a few weeks before and he got to check out all the Mickey party supplies. He was dying with anticpation to blow out his candles and hear the "Happy Birthday" song...that song makes him smile every time!

Needless to say, by the day of his actual party, he was ready to get out of the house and head to J&R (gymnastics place). We got there a few minutes early to set up and then his buddies started to show up and off he went to play. The whole party only lasted an hour and a half which was an hour of free play time and 30 minutes in the party room for happy birthday song and cake and ice cream, but it as perfect. And I must say, is definitely the way to go when it comes to kids' birthday parties...no more at our house any time soon!

Tristan had such a wonderful time running, jumping and playing with all his friends and family and we were so happy to have everyone there. A big thanks to everyone who was able to celebrate our big boys' 3rd birthday with us that day!

If you're like me plus the only purpose you want to operate out is usually to appear superior and draw in adult females, here is my quick strategy for carrying out this the natural way for essentially newcomers and possibly men and women who just want to maintain.

Everything this suggests is the fact that every time you workout, you
increase a little extra body weight than last time.

Amazing! I am also looking for event halls for rent like this for my kid’s birthday party. Kids love places like this. There is so much of enjoyment and I really think it’s a perfect place for a kid’s birthday celebration. Also, that’s a wonderful cake and a beautiful invite.
