Today we celebrated Daniel's 3rd birthday! It is so hard for me to believe that he is three!! Where does the time go??
The day was busy getting the house and food ready for the party. In the evening, our guests arrived.
GranGran, PopPop, Susan, and Rob representing the McCall clan. (You will see from the pictures that William did not want for attention!)
Dee, PawPaw, Cameron, and Heather represented the Gill clan.
This year, we were excited to invite the Springfields to join us since they were in town visiting family. It was a large crowd, but we had fun!
We had barbecue, mac and cheese, and broccoli slaw for dinner. The adults at the table...the kids on the porch.
We sang "Happy Birthday" and ate cake and ice cream!
It makes me laugh, but Daniel does not like the attention of everyone singing to him. He hid during most of it. He's just not the center of attention type of kid!
We watched his birthday video and then opened presents.
He was excited to open his Indiana Jones costume! He loves it...wears it constantly!
He was also very excited to get his own new bike!! He rides it so well! I watched them riding and was simply struck by the fact that my boys are both old enough to ride a bike.
It was a great day. So much fun to celebrate an awesome little boy with family and friends. Daniel, you are blessing to our family. A sweet soul always willing to snuggle with your Mommy. I thank God for sending you to us some three years ago!
Sweet Daniel! I feel bad that Mary Frances and Philip blew out his birthday candles, but I love the picture of the two of them with the cake. We are looking forward to seeing you and your crew tomorrow.
