Miles is 3 (and then some)

We're a little late in posting about Miles' 3rd Birthday. It was a great party. Many of his friends and family were able to make it. Miles had a "Cars" themed bouncy house, which (as expected) kids of all ages loved playing in. In order to maintain some semblance of order, we separated the party goers into "Big Kids" and "Little Kids". Only one group in at a time. My role (all day and into the night) was traffic cop and referee. Lina was host and kept the food and drinks going for our third group "Adult Kids".

Karen, our former Nanny (no reflection on her):) was there, painting the faces of all the kids. We had the iPad out to look up images of various animals requested by the kids. She was a big hit and really added to the experience.

The party raged until about 10pm, when the last of the kids stumbled out and Miles stumbled to bed - exhausted. The only casualty was a school project due Monday morning; abandoned in favor of an epic evening. :)

We still need to get our photos in order. Basically, Mommy and Daddy were so preoccupied with the party and making sure the kids and guests had fun, that we didn't take a whole lot of photos (ie. any).

I was going to call this post "InvenTOYry" as the toys Miles received was generous and rather unexpected. We didn't think to ask that people not bring anything but themselves. So we have a long list of thank yous and "we'll getcha back." To give some perspective, Miles was still opening 2-3 gifts per night and this lasted for 4 days after the party. We thank you all for the gifts and for celebrating with us.
