Oh, to turn 3 again

It's hard to determine what is the best part of a 3rd birthday. The presents are great. Partying with all of your friends is certainly at the top of the list. And could anything be better than pink cupckaes? Or is it the fact that Veronica turned 3 three days ago, but started partying with her friends four days ago, is still getting presents in the mail, and will be eating cupcakes for another few days?

It's been nearly a full week of fun for Veronica and the clock is still ticking. Grammy flew out from Pennsylvania and brought a football jersey from Gramps in the wrong shade of green. Oh well, at least it's not black and gold. Veronica didn't want to put the jersey on until she was introduced to the concept of tackling. You don't want to face this going over the middle.

The birthday party itself was held at gymnastics. 17 of Veronica's closest friends came to celebrate and run wild for two hours. The party somehow went off without a hitch, although the guidance of experienced parents and gymnastics chaperones my have helped the two clueless parents constantly asking questions like "Should we do cake now?" and "Where are the candles?"

Happy Birthday Veronica. Now could you slow down so the next one doesn't come so soon?
