Alayna is 3!

We had such a fun day celebrating Alayna's birthday yesterday! She woke up to balloons and pink decorations (her favorite color) and was so excited to get to go with Daddy to the coffee shop before he went to work. She chose a yummy cinnamon roll there for breakfast. Later in the day we had a tea party at her request and I made some chocolate chip scones to go along with our "tea."

It was beautiful outside, so we took a short walk to look at the building near our house that got hit by a tornado a few days ago.  It was barely two blocks away, very crazy.

We then drove to a playground and played there for quite awhile.

Our friend Jared came over and after Danny arrived home from work we had a yummy dinner, opened presents, then had some pink (of course) cake and ice cream! We also let the kids stay up late and let Alayna choose a video to watch. She picked Blue's Clues so we watched the birthday episode and she just loved it.

It was a simple, relaxed, but full, day.  Perfect.

Happy Birthday Alayna! You are so special to us!
