It's my party AGAIN?!

Lucky girl, Lauren, had 2 birthday parties this year.  We had the 2nd third birthday party on June 11th.  This time, Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Dave were able to make the trip to the Twin Cities.  They even brought Great-grandpa Vernie, as a special guest!  Other party-goers included:  Heidi, Reegan, and Renner F. and Kim, Jarrod, Jackson, and Leah R. 

Opening my fairy wings and puzzle present from Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Dave before the party started.

New birthday skirt from Grandma and Grandpa Kahl.  This is what 3 looks like!

The little girls went swimming even though it was a bit chilly.

They took turns going down Reegan's slide....

until all the water was gone!

And then warmed up in their towels!

Then they dried off for yummy supper of burgers, chips, and fruit salad.

Next was the cake.  Here's a family shot.

She blew out the candles.  Then we all enjoyed her DQ ice cream cake.

The little boys also had fun at the party.  Okay, so it looks like the older boys were ganging up on little Nolan here, but he was happy most of the time!

The girls enjoyed juice boxes on their towels.

And of course there were more presents!

Thanks everyone who helped us celebrate Lauren's birthday!  We can't believe she's 3!  Time flies!
