Knox's 3rd birthday party

We celebrated Knox’s third birthday last weekend!  I can’t believe our baby is already THREE!  Time does fly when you are having fun and Knox has brought so much joy to our lives.  Knox basically wanted a repeat of last year’s party so that is exactly what we did!

Knox’s memory is incredible.  I literally don’t think he forgets anything, ha!  Of course he remembered his 2nd birthday party and anytime I would ask him what he wanted this year he would just describe last year’s party, so that’s what he got – another barnyard birthday bash!  He still loves horses, but race cars are coming in a close second these days.

Knox requested a blue horse with blue eyes and sat there so still while she worked.

You may notice the pig is missing it’s head… I am sure you can guess what may have happened!  (Apparently Knox got hungry before the party!)

The party was a Saturday evening (from 4-6pm) so we invited the whole family and went for easy and catered our favorite barbecue for dinner.

I tried to document that Andrew was actually here, but as you can see he was just ready for a nap.  Poor baby didn’t feel well so he went down at the beginning of the party and missed all the fun. 🙁  I wish you could see his adorable horse on his outfit!

Happy birthday, Knox!  We love you more than you will ever know!  You are so smart beyond your 3-years, so sweet to your little brother (most the time), polite and simply so fun to be around!  You bring so much joy to our lives and we can’t wait to continue to watch you grow.  If I could freeze time, I might choose this age, I love hearing your logic, reasoning and the adorable things that come out of your mouth!  Heres to you big boy!
