I'm so sorry... I've set down to post this thing about 5 times and seriously lack desire to do it. The Barbies have made me never want to get on the internet again. (I'm sorry, but now in my head I refer to Barbie as the b word. Kinda makes me giggle. I'm sorry, Anna). BUT I have some adorable pictures of friends and people have been asking what we ended up doing. So here it is!
Dalton had his 3rd Birthday (April 3rd) and the theme was Farmer Mickey! Yes, I had a thrill planning the party and it was such a good time. I picked the theme because Dalton loves Mickey Mouse and he adores tractors. There's a Mickey episode about Mickey and Donald's farm that he loves and then I found a Farmer Mickey book. That's how it all came together. The kids played outside the whole time and the weather was great. He's 3 (I know he looks 5)!

Per usual I like to use some things around the house-I used
tree stumps that Jack had cut up for the woodland themed shower I threw. I also pulled
chicken wire from my garden fence and stapled it to this frame. Cut off a branch from my
tree and voila. I look fancy. In the middle is the invitation. I did, of course, went out
and bought that mini cowboy hat for Dalton's Mickey. Ha. |

Surprise visit from my great friend, Lindsey, her husband, Sam, and handsome son, McClain. They just happened to
"be stopping through" from Austin, TX to Lexington! It felt so special to have them there. |
 |
| Tire swing was the hit of the party thanks to Richard, Beau, and Jack. |
 |
The kids enjoyed Pinning the Button on Mickey. I thought it
would flop but it was a winner. |
 |
I took the farmer mickey book, cut into bunting, then sewed it together. Like the one in my kitchen to hide the
unfinished drywall :). No comment. |
 |
| This didn't quite work. I think maybe 2 people planted a seed. But good idea, Cindi. |
 |
The best thing we've ever bought. For Dalton's birthday we got him this
gator from our friend's, the Cowans. He rides it every day. Probably more miles on
it than my car. I'm shocked he was so open to letting Lilian drive it. |

I'm so glad Richard and Ouisey took time on the
photo op horse. Great pic! |
 |
| I found a gluten/egg/soy/dairy/nut (ha ha, freak!) free cupcake mix. The brand is Cherrybrook, if anyone is interested. Success! |
 |
| I had a basket of Mickey ears and bandanas to wear. Boy, am I glad I did! |

Littles playing together-I love it!
