Party Time!

Eli's 3rd birthday party was yesterday. The weather was the warmest all year (almost 70) and people were getting a bit sunburnt even, not bad for March huh?

Eli loves the movie cars, so I made him a special birthday banner and cake to go with the theme. He got lots of new cars toys, a basketball hoop, a easel for drawing and painting and some much needed summer clothes.

We had family over and Eli's BFF Vinny. Everyone had a great time and the kids had a blast in the bouncy house! I couldnt have asked for a better day. Thank you everyone for sharing in the celebration with us.

Recess Monkeys

Since Eli's party wasn't for another week we wanted to do something special for him. I got a email saying his favorite band Recess Monkeys was doing a local show I knew I had the prefect way to spend the day.

Recess Monkeys are a group of grade school teachers who love music and started a band. They play music aimed at the preschool and elementary school age groups, but thier music will have moms and dads tapping thier toes too. Its silly but Eli and I are total fanatics!




Here is the post from our first visit to see them.

Later we went to Red Robin for dinner and after we ate Eli got a birthday treat from the staff. He loved having happy birthday sang to him. This is beig deal stuff when your 3!
