Happy Birthday, Josiah...To Infinity & Beyond!

Saturday, December 6th was Josiah's 3rd Birthday Party! His birthday isn't until December 11th, but we decided to celebrate early. Josiah is crazy about Toy Story...specifically Buzz Lightyear. So, we had a Buzz Birthday Party.

His cake turned out so great!

Josiah just gasped when he saw it! He loved it!

We decorated the kitchen with Buzz colors,

centerpieces,

a banner,

& balloons, etc. etc. etc. Yes, Buzz Lightyear was coming out of our ears. What can I say, when I get a vision for something, I go all out!

After Josiah ran around the house looking at the decorated house, our friends began to arrive. After watching some of Toy Story 2 & playing with the many Buzz & Woody toys we have, we headed into party central for some pizza, chips & Buzz colored M&M's.

The kids all had a good time sitting at one end of the table together. The adults seemed to have a great time at the opposite end as well. I guess everyone needs a break from each other sometimes! HA!

Then it was time for some cake & ice cream. Josiah really enjoyed it when everyone began to sing "Happy Birthday!" He sings it to himself year round & finally it was the right time for it! He even blew out his candles like a pro!

After our bellies were full, we headed outside for some fun on the new playset!

They seemed to really enjoy playing outside together!

Then it was time to head inside & open presents!

Josiah has learned his gracious gift gasp very well. He acted like each gift was the most amazing thing he had ever seen...& really, they were.

He got the best gifts this year. Everyone who came seemed to know Josiah to a T & knew just what to buy! What great friends we have! Thanks to everyone who came & made this party such a special time for Josiah!

One of the presents we gave Josiah for his birthday was an acoustic guitar like his Daddy. After everyone was gone, the two guys in my life sat down to serenade me on their guitars. What a perfect way to end a perfect day.

We love you, Josiah...to Infinity & Beyond!
