3rd Birthday Part 1

This is for all those relatives that are up North and unable to come down. A sneak-peak into Selah's 3rd Birthday Party!

Jet and I had decorated the dining room with streamers and balloons and presents and hats and a birthday tablecloth. This is Selah, first thing in the morning, as she's walking in for breakfast. And no, they usually aren't dressed for breakfast. But...you know, for pictures and all... ;)

Charis is such the sweet big sister, taking Selah under her wing and explaining the how-tos of birthdaydom. I don't remember what she was saying, but I do remember it was precious.
You just want to squeeze her and that sweet face!!

Charis was so sweet. Sweet when Selah kept getting tons of attention. When Selah refused to share her new toys, or any of her balloons. She never lost it, but always waited patiently. I'm so proud!
Celebrating sister style! ;)

We started a new "tradition" this year. Birthday donuts. Something we NEVER eat...but something that they'll, now, be getting every morning of a birthday. They loved it!
Proud Daddy...as Selah, oblivious to the camera, eats her icecream and cupcake.
This one is for Davene. Who says I never have a picture on here of me. It's a rushed one, but there you go! *wink*
Mom and Dad with all of their grandkids, except two. Raegan was sleeping. Eli was at the beach with his mommy and daddy. They range in age from 17 years old to 3 1/2 months (with one more on the way).
Sydney was "playing" Jet's childhood guitar, while the other girls were dancing around the floor together.

Skyler wasn't about to be outdone by her big sister!! :)
My two men (brother and husband)! Rolling their eyes at me for wanting to take a picture of them.
Some more of them! My brother, nephew, and dad. So sweet!
The three little girls! Skyler is just 6 months younger than Selah. I foresee many many sleepovers in the not-to-distant future. They LOVED playing together!
Mom and Dad gave Selah a HUGE bubble thing. Even though it was in the mid-to-high 90's, she wanted to be outside playing with it!!

As you can see, Selah had a blast turning a big three years old!
