Shane's Belated 3rd Birthday Pics...

Good: The birthday celebration is not late...it actually happened on his actual birthday, December 31st....

Bad: That means I am 3 weeks late getting these pics up....I wanted to do a cute post with it...and in the end forgot and am now just going for getting them up for posterities sake!

We did have a blast on his birthday. It was an odd-ish birthday...not the normal, at home, open presents at home, with a cake at home and even sleep at a home...we were in hotels in San Antonio on an adventure with Gammy and Papa. Shane did say that it was his best birthday EVER...which sadly is true. His 1st birthday our friends that were going to come party with us and lots of food I had made...ended up with sick kiddos....then his 2nd birthday we spent on an airplane coming back to TX because Gav had to be back for work. So #3 was actually pretty magical for him. He loved Schlitterbahn's holiday celebration. It was very festive...and perfect for his age and abilities. One of his only requests for his birthday was that he have fireworks...which we were really going to try and accomodate. Considering it was New Year's Eve in a city...we didn't think it would be all that difficult. But, our big 3 year-old , plum tuckered from all the fun....zonked out before midnight hit.

This next year is going to be great for Shaner....lots of new things for a 3 year old, especially one as inquisitive as he... We love you so much little monkey!

Happy Birthday Shane!!
That sounds so familiar. Last year Darren spent his birthday in San Antonio, in a hotel. Matts family came into town to visit. Then the year before it was spent in the Navy Lodge we just moving here. This year will be fun I think we will be in the middle of a move to Ca. Its a good thing they are young.

Haha. Okay, so I had sweety (for Lance) and then spell check said it was wrong. But sweaty is like perspiring right? Help! Spelling was never my strong suit:)
