A Swingin' Good Time

Cash's birthday is today!!! He is now our little 3 year old. I can't believe it!. We through him a little party last night and had such a good time. We had the theme of SWINGIN' mainly because his big gift was a swing set. Him and Vanna like to fight over the slide.

This is Cash's face when he first saw the swingset - wish you could see how excited he was.

So the invitations asked his friends to "Come have a SWINGIN' good time. We played a water balloon/swingin' game and had another pinata (they always seem to be a hit with the kids and we had tons of candy left over from Vanna's party we needed to get rid of so it was perfect) where the kids each got their SWINGS in. I tried to decorate around the theme but it was kind of hard. I just taped names all around of famous "swingers" (baseball players, tennis players, etc. - I know - lame but I couldn't think of anything else). At least the cake kind of turned out.

Cash got his swing set, a little swimming pool (to help with our hot summers), the Walle DVD and bubbles and bouncy balls (his favorites).

This is Vanna cheesing it for the camera at Cash's party.

Cash is growing up so quickly, it's just hard to believe. Although Cash really tries our patience and tests us beyond what we thought capable sometimes, we love his spunky and dramatic personality. I just have to remind myself that he is just a little boy - learning and growing.

Cash is talking a lot better now and says such funny things. He is still such a tease - we're trying our best to teach him to quit teasing Vanna so much. The poor girl is in for it. Cash still loves to play with any ball he can get his hands on. He loves to search for bugs, hit flies with the fly swatter, find any excuse for a bandaid, and eat popsicles (among so many other things). He's a big helper (well, sometimes) by helping me water the flowers, get the mail, and watch out for Vanna.

We love the little character and are so grateful to have him in our family!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CASH!
