Celebrating Briley!!

The morning of Briley's birthday we headed to the mall for a special surprise for our birthday girl.  We took her to Build A Bear to make a Minnie Mouse bear which came out on her birthday!  She was so excited!!
We continued our tradition this year and celebrated Briley's actual birthday night at the park like we did for her 1st and 2nd birthday!!  We invited extended family to come this year since we celebrated her birthday party with her little friends.  Enjoy the pictures!!

Here is my favorite part...comparing each year!!

Thank you God for blessing us with such a perfect little girl!!
We love you to the moon and back Briley Ann!!

Minnie Mouse 3rd Birthday Party!

We officially have a 3 year old!!  Her birthday was last Friday and we had a wonderful day celebrating her with the annual birthday dinner at the park with family.

I will post more about her actual birthday later but I have to share with you the fun pictures from her Minnie Mouse birthday party with her friends.  We decided to have just a "friends" party this year and not at our house and it was wonderful.  No cleanup!!  Gymboree was a fun place (similar to Little Gym) and what's most important is B loved it.

Here is her invitation :)  I found one on etsy I liked and just made one similar in photoshop myself.  I love photoshop now that I know how to use it ;)

I decided not to go too crazy with the decor and just did a few of the things I had pinned awhile back for her birthday.  We had....

Minnie and Mickey Mouse plates for each kiddo!!
(hot glued small and large black plates together and used a butterfly cookie cutter for the bow) 

A happy birthday banner!!
(Got the idea off etsy...was $25 to order and I made it for $7!!) 

Name tags for all her friends...boys had Mickey's and girls had Minnie's of course!!

Minnie Mouse cupcakes!!
(Hint...do not put the oreos in the day before because they become soft and most fell over by the next day...oh well you can't win 'em all right?  They were still cute.)

Minnie Mouse rice krispie treats!!
A BIG thank you to her Daddy who worked very hard to make them.
(We used a mickey mouse cookie cutter and just dipped the ears in chocolate and added the pink sprinkles to make it girly.)
 
And last but not least the favors!!  
(each child got a coloring book and minnie mouse sucker...I made the tags on our computer.)

So here is the end result with all the decorations the day of her party...

Now for all the fun party pictures!!
(you can click on each picture to see it bigger)

After the party she let her balloons go to baby sister Hadley and our sweet new angel in Heaven...

We had the best day celebrating our 3 year old with all her friends!!

Blog Funk...

I can't believe it has been over 2 weeks since my last post.  I told Daniel that I feel like I'm in a blog funk...honestly since my last post life has just been so busy and it is finally starting to slow down.  I finished school, we have been busy with family/friends, and this past Saturday Briley had her 3rd birthday party with all her sweet friends.  

I'm hoping this post and sneak peek of her birthday party will get me motivated to get back to my blogging!!
 
Thank you for all your comments from my last post.  We appreciate all the prayers as we walk in this difficult journey of loss...and we are so thankful for our Savior for carrying us every step of the way.
 
Next post...a Minnie Mouse 3rd Birthday Party!!

My Minnie Mouse

Briley's 3rd birthday is quickly approaching and I am busy getting her invites ready to be sent out.  Her birthday theme is of course "Minnie Mouse" (her choice) and today we had a photo shoot outside for the invitation.  I had to share a few with you that I didn't pick for the invite...so cute!!



Love my sweet Minnie!!
