bentley von 3 years.

i've always been so blessed to have good birthday pictures of my boy!
for birthdays one & two it was so awesome to have celine available to take pictures,
and for birthday three we did a quick photo shoot with andrea & i couldn't be happier with how the pictures turned out!
they actually made me quite teary because he looks like his baby self, except older!
i knew you wouldn't want me to narrow it down to much.
enjoy!

bentley's 3rd birthday: micky mouse party!

there aren't to many details from the party that won't be self explanatory in the following 54 pictures.  andrea told me she was on picture duty.
what a gift!
i couldn't really narrow down to only a few favorites.

since B has a summer birthday, we stick to the same simple menu:
-hotdogs & cheese burgers
-beans
-chips
-veggy tray
-salad (this year it was blue jello-actually a blue "pear salad")
-lemonade

-cake* & or rootbeer floats
*i will note, in the past we have had some pretty fancy cupcakes made by andrea, but i asked bentley what he wanted this year "hmm, we haven't had cake in forever, mom!"

the decor was (of course) a banner, balloons, & micky toys dug out of the toy box.
keeping it simple!

starting the day off right at duncan donuts!

oh yes, i also slapped some stickers on some cups.

ok ok, cut out & ironed on a 3.

he had been waiting for presents since he woke up. no being shy about it.

grandpa phil & grandma kathy made sure he had got everything on his list.
