Marcella's Birthday

Can you believe this girl is 3? I seriously can't believe it. Time has gone by so fast it is amazing. She really is 3 going on 17. I can't believe how old she acts sometimes. Well for her birthday we made doughnuts (if you want the recipe it is here.)

She thought they were so yummy, and we had a lot of fun making them. Jon had to teach today, so after we ate, we went to Jon's class to say hi. A bunch of Jon's students went and bought Marcella some candy to give her since it was her Birthday. I am just sad we didn't get any pictures of the event. We had a lot of fun going in.

After that we had a big family party. If/when we get a house, I am going to make sure there will be enough room for everyone to sit down, plus some. It was a little crowded, but we all had a great time. Marcella received a bunch of fun toys, that she loves to play with. Thanks you everyone for coming and celebrating with us. We had so much fun.

M's 2nd cake had to be Strawberry Shortcake. It turned out pretty good and was super yummy.

Here is Claire enjoying one of Marcella's presents. crazy that she almost doesn't fit in here any more.

I wish I could say that our house has more space than our apartment, but I honestly don't think it does..I think our house is smaller than our apartment was haha, anyway looks like you guys had tons of fun! Its crazy how fast they grow..im only beginning to see this.

Happy Birthday Marcella. Isn't it crazy how time flies. Gavin turns 4 in a few days and I can hardly believe it. If you ask him he's turning 16....he wants to be 16 so he can drive. Hmmm..he's got quite a while til that day comes thankfully:)
