Singing Happy Birthday to him at Aunt Sandy’s house.
Aunt Sandy got him this super cute cake–so I didn’t need to make another one for his birthday on Monday. 

We always decorate the kids’ doors and the kitchen. I love hearing them wake up and be surprised at walking out to a fun surprise (it’s not that great, but it’s something simple that they love). Devon walked downstairs and said, “Cool mom! That looks so cool!” So it’s totally worth it!
We made chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.
He got to choose between bowling and the Children’s Museum, and since he didn’t know what the heck bowling was, he chose that. Carson told everyone he went “Real bowling!” since the only bowling he’s done was on the Wii at Grandma and Grandpa Hurst’s house.

Drinking horchata at Ixtapa restaurant. He said he wanted a quesadilla for dinner.
I made Carson a book like this at age 2, and thought age 3 might be a little better, it’s just really simple, but they like them.
Happy Birthday Devon! 3 is a fun age! We decorate with balloons and streamers too! The kids love it!

What a fun birthday. I hope bowling was exciting for them! And cute book. I need to get something like that going one day. I hope you start feeling better soon.
How fun, looks like you guys had fun! What a big boy he is!
Looks like a fun birthday! Devon looks so handsome in his big kid suit. I am totally going to steal your idea of decorating their door. That is such a cute idea!
You do a LOT for your kids on their birthdays! I’m feeling really super-lame now . . . I’m going to steal your ideas, too!
