Happy 3rd birthday Quinn!

Happy birthday to you Quinn! Pirate Party and Spider man bounce house were the two most important things of the day Saturday- oh wait, maybe the Lightning McQueen ice cream cake the night before with the Pirate Ship balloons after a day at the water park? All too good to decide. Thanks for all of the good wishes, gifts, cards, calls, and more gifts.... We pretty much had to make it a birthday week so the present opening did not get too overwhelming.... In fact now when the door bell rings, he thinks it might be a present for him, a card or a visitor just to see him... aaahhh to be 3 and totally self involved...:)
Quinn had 11 of his closest friends, neighbors and their brothers and sisters (so I guess that made it about 16-ish little ones 5 and under...yikes) over for some early day, boiling hot sun summer fun. Nothing says July birthdays like melting in a bounce house full of little kids all jumped up on cupcakes and candy from a Pirate Pinata. Just add in drawn on mustaches to make every look like a pirate (courtesy of Brent)pirate eye patches, pirate hats and plastic swords and you have one large recipe for tons of fun!!
I hope everyone had as much fun as Quinn did. Crosby showed his his pirate spirit and support for his brother before heading out of the sun for a mid morning nap. He made it back out to check out the last pirates still standing in the bounce house later that day and proudly wore his pirate shirt but, stayed away from the cupcakes and the bounce house just yet.
Enjoy- since a picture is worth a thousand words, nothing else to be said except, we love you our 3 year old boy! Thanks for being such a great big brother to Crosby and the funniest, sweetest little guy we could ever have dreamed of... we love you.
