Camden's 3rd Birthday Party!

My little angel had her first "big girl" birthday party on Thursday, December 8, 2011 in the ROC at our church.  I was worried about it because of our lack of funds and my lack of creativeness but I think it was perfect.  She had friends and family there and even a few from school!  Thanks to my wonderful husband for coming up with things for the kids to do.  We had a play-doh station and a cardboard house to color.  Camden loved it and she didn't want to leave the play-doh to open her presents until I assured her the play-doh would come home with us too. She was so cute opening her gifts and after each one she would say "oh! that's just what I've always wanted".  We got her a watch and earrings (because that's what she has been asking for for months now) and a Leapster Explorer or computer as she likes to call it.
Melissa Evans did her cake again this year and it was perfect!  I didn't have time to get her a picture of the napkins and decorations but it looked like everything anyway.  She is so talented!  The party was at 5:00 p.m. because I was late booking the ROC but it really turned out perfect anyway.  And I think we had such a good turn out because it wasn't on a Saturday this close to Christmas.
Neil loved the markers (his first time with them) and he decided to camp out in the house with them and color his hands the whole time.  Thankfully they were washable.  Overall birthday #3 was a success and all that really matters is that Camden had a good time and I think she did.  How did time go by fast enough for me to already have a preschooler?!? I am so thankful and grateful to be able to soak up all of this time with them because it is passing really fast!
