I'm free years old!

Grandma Pinegar taught Josie how to hold her fingers for three and now she is a pro!

The morning started at 7:00 when Josie woke up, and the tradition at our house is that they come into our bed and we bring out the presents to them! Josie was so excited, she thought she was supposed to cover her eyes!

Ariel, a princess piggy bank, a minnie mouse dress and some other treasures!

Then at 9:30 it was time for Josie's first party with her two little best friends, Ruby and Sophie!

Yummy little cupcake bites made by our darling neighbor Brinlee (she's only 14...isn't she amazing!)

Then a little balloon game...

Present opening....a purse and a tutu....nothing better!

Then a little purse craft...they decorated them...great stickers!

By the end, they all had on a tutu and a tiara...I foresee a lot of girly fun in our future!

Then by 11:30 it was off to lunch with our twin cousin Luke! We met at Pirate Island and had a great time! I think Tricia and I had more fun playing the games and winning 200 tickets!

Then everyone came to celebrate dinner at 6:00 (crazy busy day!). All our grandmas and grandpas, we are so lucky to have them all so close and in town at the same time!

Josie got to open a few more presents....

Then it was time for cake....a "boootiful barbie princess fairy...so bootiful!"

Have you ever seen a face so delighted?

One candle at a time, but she did it! Happy Birthday little girl! You are still our favorite baby girl!
WE LOVE YOU!
