We're goin on a trip in our favorite Rocketship...


Eliza is 3! We had a "Little Einsteins" theme this year. Of course we went back and forth a few times between that and Ariel! We finally convinced her to do Einsteins. Basically we just said over and over "We are doing Little Einsteins"! If you have never seen it, it is so great! It is very educational and teaches kids about music. They usually feature a composer and an artist on each episode. They also pick one famous tune from that composer and sing little songs to it.

In this picture she is holding up her "3" angel. My grandparents started this tradition when all of us girl cousins were little. They got us one each year up until we turned 21. I am passing mine down to Adrianna so Eliza needs her own! My mom is continuing the tradition.

I think we had 24 people crammed into our house! We went to Pietro's for dinner beforehand and then everyone came back to our house for dessert and gifts.






My friend Sandra made the rocket cake. She did a FABULOUS job! Less stress and time for me! I just easily added the other stuff to it! One of the best $20 I ever spent!


















It always seems like these events go by so fast. I thoroughly enjoy these birthday parties, not only because it is my child's birthday, but also because everyone is together! I just have to try not to be such a "Martha" when we have everyone over! It is one of the things I look forward to the most each year. Planning the parties and having everyone come. I just have to cherish these moments and lock them away to remember later!

It truly was a great party! You have a gift for planning! I loved the game.

It has been quite a life so far, baby! I'm thoroughly enjoying it with you and the kidlets...

Praise be to God for His goodness!
