Chase is 3!!!

Chase turned 3 on the 8th but we celebrated yesterday. We had a few friends over for swimming, pizza and cake. Chase wasn't too into swimming because he wanted to get the rest of the party started!


Grandma and Grandpa were a huge help with getting food ready, picking up pizza, etc!


Grateful for a few friends that could come over last minute.


Someone sees cupcakes!

Chase was singing along "Happy Birthday to you.."



Opening presents with the help of friends!



Thank you grandpa and grandma for the remote control car!

Me and my birthday boy!

Chase, we love you so much and you bring us so much joy! We love watching you play with your cars and trains for hours on end. You are very social and love playing with your friends. While we have to remind you to say please, your thank yous are abundant! You mastered your tricycle and are almost potty trained! We love hearing you recite your verses and talking about how Jesus died on the cross for our sins. We hope to cultivate in you a love for the church (even though now when I ask what we do there you say "play cars") and others. We hope our discpline of you is firm but loving and always points you back to the cross and a need for a Savior. Even though you are not too interested in Jacob now we know you will be a great big brother and eventually become best buds. We are excited to see what this year brings for our big three year old!!

When we can't be at birthdays, it is always wonderful to check the blog and have a feel for the party. Love you Chase - Grandpop and Grandmom
