Ashton's 3rd Birthday

Our little man turns three years old today - man how quickly he has grown!  He is one vivacious little boy...very chatty and outgoing. 

 Neela had a rather elaborate third birthday party several years back, so we thought we should try and celebrate Ashton's birthday this year with a bit more bang.  It was a lot of work, but he loved it - so I guess that is all that matters.
 
We went with a dinosaur theme - lots of fun!

Decorating the dino cupcakes - my first real go at decorating anything I baked.  Typically I don't make time for this.



 
We surprised Ashton first thing yesterday morning with some inflatable dinos...one big one and a group of smaller ones - they were a huge hit with all of the kids at the party.
