It was a PARTY!

Brayden loves lightning mcqueen from the Disney movie Cars so we thought we'd have a lightning party this year!
Brayden was so surprised when he woke up and saw the downstairs decorated like this and a new basketball hoop (Guy's amazing $4 garage sale find!)We went out to lunch with Stacy and Ellie and found a fun place to play afterwards
It even had a life size checker game which was kinda coolOnce daddy came home from work it was time to really party. Tyler was all ready!!Brayden had been waiting all day to open presents so he couldn't wait any longer! He got lots of fun stuff
Me taking pictures on my phone of the birthday boy
Whats inside the big box?
A new lightning mcqueen bike!!
He couldn't wait to try it out
And he actually did really well for the first time!
Check it out...

After presents we went out to dinner and ate at buca di beppo. Brayden had cheese pizza and then they surprised him with these huge candles to blow out while everyone in the restraunt sang him happy birthday. It was pretty funny!
He was pretty proud to have blown out such big candles on his own! And take a look at this huge cake they gave him. It was seriously the best cake I have ever tasted! He couldn't even wait until I gave him a fork...he just dug in with his fingers!
So after we stuffed ourselves there we went back home and....
did the same thing all over again with our own cake! He had a Cars ice cream cake which was also so yummy!
You can never have too much cake on your birthday when your 3!
We even let Tyler try a little frosting so he wouldn't feel left out
He LOVED it!
We finished off the birthday with a family basketball tournamentBrayden loves to slam dunk it! It was a great birthday and it was fun to see Brayden so excited and happy!



It's good to be 3!
