On April 21st my little Jordan turned 3. We really celebrate birthdays around here and try to make them a multi-day celebration (this one lasted 3 days). So on Thursday (4/21) we took her to see.....something that made her eyes dance with joy....
All of her favorite characters from Sesame Street.
and she was pretty much in heaven the rest of the day......
She even got to get on her first ride, Prince Elmo's Spire
with several more rides to follow. Afterwards, her favorite meal...Mac & Cheese
On Friday we went to a petting farm to see this guy
and she had her second favorite meal: Grill Cheese, tomato soup, fruit & choc. milk
On Saturday, I had won tickets for a Easter egg hunt/pizza party at a local bouncey place.
This is one of those parent forced pictures. Clearly the girls didn't want to visit the bunny and I "made" them....hence the looks on their faces. Lesson learned for next time.
and then later in the evening our own neighborhood had their Easter Egg Hunt so we briefly went there for maybe 20 mins....just long enough to collect some candy filled eggs for our own hunt later in the week. (Terrible, I know)
Plus we had to hurry back home to officially have the family birthday party.
First up is the royal birthday crown....
The royal birthday cake & cupcakes
The royal gown....(thanks grandad!)
and the rest of the gifts...some furniture sets for this royal dollhouse.
Happy Birthday Jordan. You are amazing, creative, full of life and a definetly coming into your own. We love & cherish you more than words could say.
Happy Birthday Jordan! Lovely celebrations, you all know how to party. Thank you for sharing.

What a wonderful 3 days of celebration wow!!
I wonder to myself if there's a kid alive that doesn't like sesame street!!!
Someone LOVES cheese! Mac and cheese, grilled cheese! But I love that she loves the side of fruit.
My little one had cherries as a snack yesterday and I was blown away that there was one little girl that didn't know what they were, it speaks volumes....:(
I had no idea that Pump It Up was sooo huge nationally!
I had to chuckle at you picking up eggs for your own easter egg hunt!
Did you make that cake it's beautiful!!!!
I love her dancing in her crown.
Funny I just bought the dining room set for my little ones doll house just yesterday, along with the Thor Shield of Sword of course!!

What a great day visiting with the Sesame Street gang. I am sure it made her feel very special!
We have a Pump It Up here in our city too but haven't ever gone. Maybe we will have to do that some time this summer when it is too hot to go outside.
I want to celebrate birthdays at your house! Three days of fun.
