What A Fun Day

First we went to the University Mall with my friend, Becca and her daughter Lily.  We went to the Disney Store where Tobe got a Lightning McQueen car and sippy cup.  Then we ate lunch and got some ice cream...Yummy!!

Later we went to the Kangaroo Zoo with Tobe's cousin Hayden.  Hayden was a little scared of all the BIG stuff but still managed to have fun.  Tobe had fun jumping around and going down the slide with Dad.
To end the evening we invited a bunch of neighbors and friends over to sing "Happy Birthday" and have cake and ice cream.  Tobe got a basketball stand, some coloring books, and bubbles.  

All in all it was a good day.  Tobe finally realized it is fun to have a birthday and now he is "fee" (3).  I hope you had a Happy Happy Birthday Tobe!

Isn't he just the cutest thing ever!! Sounds like you were running from place to place, but I'm sure the kids will remember it for years to come.

We were so lucky to spend time with Tobe on his birthday! We had so much fun-I loved Tobe and Lily looking at all the Cars together (poor Jane alone with the princesses-Lily doesn't know what she's missing!).

Thanks for the fun day and for getting me out of the valley. Lily keeps talking about driving fast in your car and sitting by Jane (and playing with trains and going down the slide...umm, I think she had a good time!).

Hope Tobe had a super fun birthday!!!

I feel so bad, I have a card for the little guy, but you know me, birthday cards are always late with me!!
I love that you had a day of fun for him. Kids love that stuff. You can tell he felt so special!! He is such a great little boy! Happy Birthday Tobe!!

hi amanda,
i have just been catching up on blogs today. i am so sorry to hear the news about your mom. i hope your family gets the miracle you are all praying for. i will say a prayer for your family today when i break my fast.
i hope all goes well.
here is one success story that ended in a complete miracle...
when one of my older brothers was little, they found a tumor in his head. the next day, he was supposed to come in again and have more tests run, so that night my grandpa gave him a blessing and he was told that he would be healed... so the next day, my mom insisted on another scan. well, to the doctor's surprise, the tumor was gone. now that is a faith promoting story about miracles... i just wish they could all happen like that.

Love the pictures! Looks like Tobe had a blast!

I have a favor to ask...since you are the most popular blogging mom I know, I need your help in spreading the word about a photo swap I'm doing on my blog. It's kind of a continuation of the photo contest I entered...and I thought it would be a fun way to make some more "blogging friends."

Thanks! I can't wait to see your pic! :)
