My sweet boy, Happy
Third Birthday!
I was talking with
your Bama about making medical decisions and personal choices
on what will increase somebodies "quality of life". Having a child, is one that could be argued in either direction. For your Mom, choosing to have a baby; choosing to have you, has absolutely been the best decision. The fulfillment you have brought into my life is more than I had expected. "My cup runneth over" is the perfect phrase to describe my heart with you apart of it. The happiness I experience with you is beyond measure, more days than not, my cheeks hurt from smiling so much. The only other experiences where I can say "my cheeks hurt from smiling" are on your Mom and Dad's Wedding day and our families Sealing Day.

You are your Dada's
best friend. You two are peas in a pod. I love observing both of you play for
hours. Interacting, using your imaginations, going on adventures. You want to
do everything your Dada does, and you WILL do it. You are his shadow and I
couldn't have picked a more perfect Man for you to emulate. Continue to strive
to be like your Dada and success will follow you.

Your third birthday
theme was a "Rhino" (Dino) Party.
You think Rhino's are
Dinosaurs - totally understandable.
And you're favorite
Dinosaur is the Rhino (Triceratops & Rhinoceros).
We have amazing
friends and family that helped to pull off this great Party.
I couldn't have done
it myself. But we can't let this day pass without saying how grateful I/we am for where my health is where it is right now. That I did have the energy to pull this off.
Special thanks to Papyrus Prints for designing the invitation.
Special thanks to my friend; Liz Harvey, for brainstorming Rhino party ideas and making decorations with her talents and skillllzzz.

I actually coordinated the color theme and entire party around these designs! Super sad when I had it printed and there was no lime green paper available for the stegosaurus :/
Special thanks to Rocklynn and her art as a face painter. We were so lucky to have you!
Special thanks to
@JoJosCreations, on Instagram for making your custom Birthday Cake and Rhino Cookies.
Special thanks to Dada for creating your Rhino Piñata all by himself.
He amazes me every day.

Special thanks to
Bama, Papa, Auntie Tole and Dada for helping make and finish up decorations the
night before celebrating.
Special thanks to
Lindsay Lindstrom (@the_lindstrom_life) for creating this BEAUTIFUL, AMAZING
video for us to remember this special day forever. I will forever remember your face as you walked into your party, in awe; turned and screamed,
"My MOM!" while you ran my way.
"My MOM!" while you ran my way.
You have a knack of making everyone you love feel special.
We love you, Linds.
Special thanks to
@LanellLeonePhotography for capturing this party through lenses and angles I'd
never be able to snap.
Hawke, your Birthday Party was spectacular - nothing short of who you are.
We love you like crazy!
Xx, Mom & Dad
ARE YOU KIDDING ME, DINOSAUR HAIR?!

Special thanks to our Tyrannosaurus Rex, who came as a last minute decision.

We love you like crazy!

To everybody who helped, Thank You! I couldn't have done
it without all of you.
We threw this whole party on a budget of $200. Would you like to learn how we did it? Leave some feedback and comment if you want a blogpost on: "How to plan a party on a student budget".
