Jackson is 3!

Jackson was really easy this year for his birthday. We asked him if he wanted a birthday cake and ice cream and he said no. We asked if he wanted cupcakes instead and he said yes to those. The morning of his birthday he was so excited to see all the decorations. He came into our room and said,"Mom! There are balloons out there!" It was so fun seeing him be so excited. Then he said that he just wanted pancakes and ice cream for his birthday. He makes me laugh. We asked him if he wanted to open his presents now or wait until that night for his party and of course he said now. His reactions were so cute and he was much more animated this year. If we had known how fun it was going to be to watch him this time then we would have had him wait. Oh well! 




Jackson got a Lightning McQueen suitcase, new McQueen slippers, a Bullseye plush doll, and a few more cars.











He also got a Jake plate, Scully bowl and utensils! He has a Mickey one already and loves it.

We had my Mom, Holly's kids and Kelly over for pizza and then Grandma Connie, Cory and Cooper and our neighbors Bobbi, Todd and Kinzi came over for cake and ice cream.


After dinner the kids raced with Jackson. He loves to race his cousins. They got some streamers and used it as a finish line. Jackson loved it.







Jackson got a ball that lights up and a Jake puzzle from Cooper and Cayman.  He got a Cars shirt and a Buzz toy from Grandma Connie.






Jackson was being kind of shy and wanted me to help him blow out his candles.





We were trying to get a picture with Jackson and Cooper and neither of them were having it. They both started crying. So this was as good as it got! Silly boys!


Jackson had a great birthday. As you can tell, he is totally excited in the picture above! But he really did. Thank you to everyone who came and helped us celebrate and make his day special. We are so grateful that we are surrounded by family that Jackson is able to grow up with. We love all of you so much!
