Happy 3rd Birthday, Elisha!
Lisha with his birthday breakfast: bologna, orange slices, and leftover muffin with candle. Sorry, we were in a hurry to get to baseball pictures.
Elisha couldn't decided what kind of theme he wanted for his party...Batman, motorcycles, tractors, camo...So, finally we led him to the David and Goliath theme. He likes the story, but not so much because of David. He is fascinated by Goliath. We had planned to have the party at the park, but due to almost flood conditions the day before and wind, we moved it to the church last minute. He didn't mind.
Everyone made it to his party, except Grandma who was battling the stomach bug. (Granna, Poppy, Cole, Meme, Nana, Aunt Katie, Angie, Geez-Paw, Jess, MawMaw, Diane, Jimmy, Ashley, Derek, Poppa, Johnna, the Bruces, the Whites, the Martinis).
He received so many awesome gifts: lifetime sportsman's license for Tennessee (hoping he will be close to here), fishing pole and tackle box, cowboy costume, road rug, logging truck and horse trailer, clothes, money, plastic cowboy and Indians, baseball bat, guns...
What should Mommy do with all of it?
Again, I spent many hour making Elisha's cake and cupcakes. I'm not a professional, will never be, but I understand why professionally made cakes cost so much -TIME! I made homemade marshmallow fondant and homemade icing, but went with the boxed cake mix for time's sake. I iced on the faces for David and Goliath and gave them candy eyes. The swords were made with gum wrappers. It is not original. I totally stole it off the internet.
Caleigh having a little fun with the balloons before the party began..barefooted as always.
Actually aggressively blowing out the candles...Maybe too aggressive with all the slobber
Reminds me of last years birthday cake pictures. He was so bashful, but here he is so excited.
A few months ago Elisha fell in love with Mikey, Uncle Jimmy's dumbie. He had immediately said he wanted him to come to the party. We had forgotten, but when we had to cancel the park thing, we remembered. We were so glad Uncle Jimmy could do it for him.
