A very happy weekend!


It all started with a day of shopping for one special little girl
that turned THREE this past Friday!!!
Can you even believe that Clara is three years old???
We ended up finding a few goodies for her party that we
had here at the house Sunday afternoon and
of course we had to buy a few things she
could play with right away too ;)

One was a princess kite and we were lucky,
it was quite windy all weekend long!



She took to flying the kite right away!



By the look on her face, it was serious business....



I think she loved it though!



Clara's birthday party turned out just wonderful!!
Here are a few snapshots I wanted to share with you....



She loves playing outside so much, her mama and daddy gave her
a bunch of outdoor toys...




Such a happy girl!!










Whew!!! Parties can wear you out!



And her dad decorated the cake!!!




Sneaking a taste of frosting!


Clara and Uncle Dave watching Uncle Brad fly the kite...
(I don't know where the kite is though)



A sassy look!




Can you tell this child is loved??
She had a wonderful time....
I just had to share it all with you ~


Wishing you a great Monday dear friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

Hi Dawn--I just loved these wonderful photos of that cutie Clara. YES, it's obvious she is loved and cherished. It's going to be fun to follow along as you describe her being a big sister in the future. Thanks for sharing your life with us :-)

Oh, Dawn, the photos are precious, as is your adorable granddaughter. Grandchildren are just the most wonderful gifts to us, aren't they? Happy Birthday to Clara--I can't believe how big she's getting! Have a wonderful week!

What a precious baby girl!! How refreshing is it to see a child happy to fly a kite! No electronic gadgets just a cowboy hat, a few toys and a cake and she looks like you've given her the moon! Birthday parties have gotten so out of hand, I actually went to a 4 year olds' party and they had a keg for the adults. I mean Really?? So all that to say is thank you for sharing Clara's day with us!!! xoxoxox-cindy

She just keeps getting cuter, Dawn! She looks like she had a wonderful birthday party! She got some great presents and kudos to Dad on the great looking cake. My son-in-law is into doing this and he does it very well, too. He even takes the classes at Michael's!
