Our little monster is 3!

Can you believe my baby is 3??  I love those big brown eyes and his adorable little voice (when he's not screaming).  I'm pretty sure Luke is as infatuated with me as I am with him and that's what makes me want to smooch his cheeks all day long.

 

For Luke's birthday we threw a joint party with Luke's best friend. . .ASA!!

Luke and Asa were born only 4 days apart and destined to be best friends.  Luke may actually love Asa more than me.  One day at lunch we had a family debate on whether Luke liked Asa or dinosaurs more.  He loves him *that* much.

I had such a fun time planning the party with Tia.  We. . .

• Rented a water slide

there was also a swimming pool full of monster goo

• Set up a photo booth

 

Props by my amazingly talented sister Kathleen Skinner

• Ate some hamburgers and hot dogs 

• Decorated monster cupcakes (key lime frosting on graham cracker cupcakes -- Tia is an overachiever)

 

 Ellie made George Washington

  

Luke made his a triceratops

• Opened presents  

  

surprisingly Luke got a LOT of dinosaur related items 

• Played with presents

• Blew out the candles

Leftover chocolate cake and lemon cupcakes from the night before

 

• Cracked open the pinata

 

• And sent everyone home 

• But not without party favors!! 

These only took an entire afternoon to put together.
