Hannah's Birthday Pictures

We had Hannah's third birthday party at Aunt Cori & Uncle Ryan's house. They have a pool so the kids and Thomas were able to swim. Hannah loved it! She had been wanting to go swimming with her cousins for a long time! It was so nice to be able to see all of Thomas' family again. Hannah finally got to meet all but one of her cousins. P was at football practice, but she got to meet him at the cabin this past weekend.

Hannah's birthday cake! It was supposed to look like the Cooking by the Book cake from Lazy Town but it didn't work so well! I was in a hurry to decorate and forgot that the cake lines were supposed to be angled, so I did them straight across the cake. The kids all loved the lollipops more than the cake! And I forgot that we are now at a High Altitude when baking cakes, so they were a bit burnt. Lovely! The frosting tasted good.

Hannah blowing out her birthday candles! It was so windy that the wind kept blowing out the match before we could even get them lit! Thomas had to hold his hand around the candles and we sang Happy Birthday to her while he was lighting the candles! We didn't think about that while planning an outdoor party!

Hannah swimming with her cousins and loving it!

Hannah jumped off the diving board for the very first time! Aunt Cori held her hand and Daddy caught her! It was so exciting! I wish I had a better picture of it! Now I have to wait until next year!

That was so fun! Hannah's so animated, I loved watching her. I think she was a little overwhelmed by all the new family she suddenly met!
