Happy 3rd Birthday Emily!

I can't believe my baby girl is 3 years old! It seems like only yesterday that Ken and I timidly pulled out of the hospital parking lot with this itty-bitty baby sleeping in her itty-bitty carseat.

Emily had a wonderful birthday party. She had many friends there to help her celebrate, and we were so thankful for our family and friends that showed their love for Emmy. We had a carnival party, of sorts. There were some pretty cool little games to play (props to Ken for the games!), fun little prizes, a bouncy house, and a UNIQUA pinata full of candy. Emily begged for "cucakes", so she and I had a fun time making and decorating cupcakes. Here are a few pictures from the party. I completely forgot my camera (doh!) and asked Mrs. Kistler to take pictures for me. I didn't get a shot of everyone who came, so I think we're going to have to have another party just so we can get more pictures ;)

Drew and Katy smile for the camera- don't you just want to pinch those cheeks? Katy's, of course!

Thank you for everyone who came from near and far to Emily's party. It meant so much to us that you were there!
