party time

 Leah had quite the birthday weekend. 

On Saturday we had her birthday party at our house with a few friends from her preschool class.  Tinkerbell was the birthday them (Leah LOVES Tink).  I had fairy wings and wands for the girls, and pirate dressup stuff for the boys.  We played with the parachute, had an obstacle course with the tunnel and tried to put the sticker on Tinkerbell's flower.  Three years old is still a bit young when you are in a strange house so not everyone wanted to fully participate in the organized games but everyone had fun in the playroom nonetheless, and Leah had a fantastic time.

 Leah requested a purple Tinkerbell cake...

On Sunday Leah's best friend Keira had her birthday party (they share the same birthday!).  Leah also had a cake at this party and blew out candles (she was quite the pro at blowing out candles). 

After the party we hit the mall and I surprised Leah with a trip to Build-A-Bear.  Kyle and Jillian have done this numerous times but Leah has never picked out a bear here.  So I figured it would be a fun thing to do now that she's 3 (plus I had a coupon!). 

And then it was time to blow out candles on a cupcake after dinner, and the birthday weekend extravaganza was complete.  Now Leah has some shopping to do with all the birthday gift cards she received!
