John Deere Birthday - August 13, 2012

Garrett celebrated his 3rd birthday on Saturday at Uncle Billy & Aunt Donna's house. We celebrated with lots of food and fun!
Grandma Jackson baked the John Deere Green cupcakes (Garrett's request ever since he had cupcakes at cousin Cambry's 1st birthday party). Grandma Nana frosted them with lemon yellow icing. Yum!
Garrett was excited to see his present from mommy & daddy: A John Deere Bicycle!


After cake & presents, we all headed outside and the kids took turns hitting the dump truck pinata Garrett picked out. I'm not sure who had more fun: the kids, or Uncle Billy!
(sorry I didn't get many good pics of the pinata action - I had a camera in one hand & camcorder in the other!)
The birthday fun was complete when all the cousins hit the pool.
 What a fun & eventful day!

Garrett's actual birthday (August 13) was celebrated first at daycare, where he shared cupcakes with his friends. After daycare we had Garrett's birthday dinner at McDonald's with both Grandma's. When we got home, both boys were bathed & clothed in their favorite pj's, and then Garrett had a few more gifts to open.
A very rare opportunity - getting a pic of both boys, and they are both smiling!

Reece thought Garrett needed a little extra help.

I found one of Garrett's favorite daycare books: Farm, by Elisha Cooper.
To all my farm friends with kids/grandkids -  it's a FANTASTIC book!

A DUMP TRUCK!!! from Uncle Billy & Aunt Sandy Curry
Overall, I think Garrett had fun turning 3 & enjoyed the weekend-long celebration that accompanied the big event!!

Again, Great Pictures! Thanks for keeping us up to date. I love the expressions - but I wonder if he will be hitting the Tonka truck with a bat to see if candy comes out? HA! Thanks again.
