Greta Bean's third birthday party

Greta's birthday party was yesterday, and things went off without a hitch, other than the wine glass I broke (mazal tov?).

Greta and her best buddies had fun playing together. The most popular toy? The box our dishwasher came in.

The Princess of St. Patrick's Day making a necklace.

Maddie jumping for joy (notice Greg modeling the necklace Maddie made).

A group shot.

Everyone was very generous with the gifties. (Girl got A LOT of pink.)

As an aside, I can be booked as entertainment for children's parties. Look, Nathan loves me; Greta is ignoring me as usual.

We had ice cream cake and ice cream cupcakes from Cold Stone Creamery. Greta wanted to have Cinderella on her cake, so I put a Cinderella Pez dispenser on the cake in hommage to our wedding cake (which had bride and groom Pez cake toppers).

Here is my favorite shot from the day. Greta and Hoppa.

We don't seem to have good shots of the Reeds (d'oh), but a HUGE thank you goes out to them for coming out Friday night to babysit so Pat and I could go see a show at Waterstreet and for helping us yesterday morning.

Also a big thank you to Rebecca for providing the main course, my parents for providing the wine and a monstrous fruit plate, and Christy for letting us borrow her beautiful cake plate. Seriously, I basically just showed up.

Thanks to everyone who joined us!
