Bowling Party

We definitely wanted Carter to have a "Special day" all to himself.  His big day started off with his favorite breakfast, Pancakes.  He and Ella Catherine got some playtime in with Aunt Katie and Uncle Michael before they had to head back to Memphis.  Then, that afternoon we had a bowling party for him with some of his friends.  He was so excited to have his best buddies come for his birthday.  He was also excited that Mimi, Grandpa, Nana and Pop were still in town for the party.  We played a little in the arcade before everyone arrived and then they bowled.  It was a SUPER fun-filled weekend and my little man was SUPER tired at the end, but I think he had a great 3rd Birthday.

Carter it is so hard to believe that you are already 3 years old.  You are my shy little guy that really doesn't like to be the center of attention.  Although you are quiet, nothings gets past you.  You are so sweetand have a tender heart but can be so hot tempered (hmmm where do you get that from?)  You love sports, cars, and helping your daddy with any outdoor task.  You are an animal lover esecially Elway.  It is almost a daily occurance that we find you and Elway lying on the floor together, usually you using him as your pillow.  Your sister continues to be your best friend (although you fight often).  You are beside yourself when she is over at a friends house and demand that we go get her immediately.  You make your daddy and I very proud everyday.  You still have that grin that melts our hearts.  We are so very blessed and thankful that God chose us to be your parents.
