G's Birthday in the Park

Grace's actual birthday fell on a Wednesday this year. That just happens to be daddy's softball game day too so we decided to combine the two. We met at Ella Sharp Park Pavilion for some pizza and cake. It was such a nice little getogether I wonder every year why I go to all the trouble of putting on a big fancy party too. Miss G had a ball, played in the park with her cousins and ate pizza.

Grace has been asking for a firetruck for about 2 months now. We told her we would get it for her for her birthday if she went to bed like a good girl with no crying. Since the babies were born this has become kind of an issue. We put a sticker chart up in her room and it worked like a charm. She was so excited to get her firetruck just like the one in the commercials! (damn Dora)

Speaking of those babies, there were lots of people to hold and love them in the oppressive August heat that they just seem to love.

After the party we watched Adam's CHAMPIONSHIP softball game. In case you didn't know, kind of a big deal, lol. The boys played a great game and ended up winning their division.

And to top off the perfect birthday for Miss G, grandma gave her her very own big girl bike. It is a pink Barbie one and even has a place for Barbie to ride too. Pretty awesome and she is thrilled. I can't believe my baby is 3. Happy birthday my sweet girl!!
