Claire's 3rd Birthday Party

Claire's birthday party was so much fun this year.  We booked a princess dress up party at an adorable little place in downtown McKinney that specializes in little girls' birthday parties!  

I'll let the photos show what a great morning of pampering her and her princess friends shared together!  

After choosing a gown of their choice they got their hair put up in fancy updos!

Claire took it very seriously...

All done with hair and onto the next beauty station,

She gives a thumbs up for her hair while on her way to the "nail station".

So pretty!

Getting eye shadow for the first time!  I wasn't sure I was ready for this.  She's my little baby--but she loved it!

Lip gloss....

Yep- she's in heaven!

They had the table all set for the girls!

Karaoke with her friends!

Dancing fun!!!

Even the boys had a blast!

Lita and Clarky!

Thumbs up for pizza!

Yummy cupcakes!

Sweet little girlfriends...

We all had a blast.

I think birthdays are so special.  It is truly a gift and a blessing to be able to celebrate this life together.  We missed Grandpa who was sick and back home in Austin, but we were so thankful that my parents and Lita could be here to celebrate Claire and share this day with us!

Just like I tell you every night when I tuck you into bed,

"I love you to the moon and back, forever and a day, and more than words can ever say."

Happy Birthday sweet girl!  We are so blessed to be your parents!

(Thank you Sarah C. for this pic of us with Claire!  We LOVE it!!)
