Claire's 3rd Birthday

Claire Bear turned 3 today!!! (If you ask her, her name she'll tell you very matter of factly, Claire Bear Abigail Brown. She really thinks her name is Claire Bear. It's cute).
She has been looking forward to this day for over a month. It was pure torture for her to watch Bella have parties and open present and then get nothing.
But finally her day has arrived!
She woke up to find her door was decorated and there were presents and baby donuts waiting for her on mom and dad's bed.
The birthday girl wearing the crown and her new skirt.
(when will Claire's dad buy her mom a decent camera? Seriously this is ridiculous).

During the day Claire had a party. She has been looking forward to this since the day she announced she was having a party.

This came as a shock to me since, I wasn't planning on throwing a 3 year old a party.

She got to invite 2 friends. Her cousin Elysia, and her future husband, Wyatt. Opps, sorry. Seth says I can't talk like that since they're only 3.

The kids had so much playing at the play land, eating chicken nuggets and eating the cupcakes that Kim made.

Last Saturday we threw together a very last minute family party at Chucke Cheese.

Claire was in heaven!

She got to open a present from Bella and she was really excited about it. We were also lucky enough to have uncle Chad, aunt Beth, and Kelsie come along. Oh and Claire must be good luck because the package we paid for included 40 game tokens, but long story we ended up with 100!

When I asked Claire what she wanted for her b-day dinner she said mac and cheese. So looks like we're headed to Noodles & Co tonight!
