Kathryn is THREE!

I just can't believe my baby girl is 3. To celebrate this milestone, we held a birthday party at the church for all her friends. Kathryn was so excited about having a party. When she would talk about the party, she would say, "I am going to have a birthday party. There are going to be mommies, daddies, and friends there!" She would state this with such excitement. It was just too cute. I didn't tell her specific names of friends coming in case something happened last minute...I didn't want her to be expecting someone and then them not be able to make it. At her party, we did a balloon theme and had Scott the Balloon Guy come in from Nashville to do a magic show and balloon art. Scott was quite entertaining and his balloon art is unbelievable. All the kids had a great time, and I think the adults did too. Scott began his magic show by popping a balloon, and this scared Kathryn (she does not like loud noises), so for the first 15-20 minutes of the party, Kathryn hung out in the hallway. Finally, thanks to Stephanie Lanham and her M&Ms, we were able to get Kathryn to go back into the room and watch the rest of the show with her friends. Once Scott was finished with the magic portion of the show, he created a variety of balloon sculptures and animals. He took requests, and Kathryn's request was an orange kitty, so that's what she got. After the show, we all enjoyed cupcakes made by Momma Pam and then opened presents. Kathryn received LOTS of goodies, and she loves them all. One of her favorite gifts was her kitty and basket (gifted by Momma Hope). We were blessed to have so many family and friends there to celebrate with us. It was a great 3rd birthday!!!!!
