Jake's third birthday!

So Jake's birthday was car-themed.  On his actual birthday we started out the day with a balloon surprise the minute he woke up and had some birthday muffins.  He loved his cake and was so excited all day.  That weekend we had a cars party for him and some of his friends.  It was a lot of fun but let's just say there's a reason I go all out every other year.

opening birthday cards:

He got some great gifts!

we went to the farm country and rode horses which = his favorite day! He rode the huge horse like it was nothing.

then he got stuck on the smaller horse which was a bit of a let down after the big horse :)

we went all out with the food making it themed.
