Dane's 3rd birthday party

Yesterday we had Dane's party at the "Train Station". We prepared him for weeks and he helped us do his "registry", etc, etc. So when Saturday finally came we didn't really tell him it wasn't his birthday because we didn't think he'd get it...and we were right! Today before church we sang happy birthday to him (because today IS his birthday) and he informed us his birthday was yesterday. We tried explaining that yesterday was his party, but today is really is birthday and he reminded US that his birthday is over!

So about this party of his....it was at a local train station set up with all Thomas the Train theme stuff. For one fee they provided 2 private rooms for us...one to break open the train-shaped piniata filled with Toddler type candy, open gifts and eat the train cake with train-themed plates and cups and then the other room to play with a huge set-up of Thomas the Train tracks and cars. A fun-filled two hours for toddlers! Afterwards he got to stamp the wall with his handprint among all the other little hands that celebrated their birthdays there too. We had to bribe him to do that part because he doesn't like his hands being "icky".

Afterwards we went to the St. Louis County Air Show...not far from our house and we just set up lawn chairs and watched the plains fly over, around, past, up, behind, etc. Over-all a good day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANE!
