Bradley's 3rd Birthday Party

We celebrated Bradley's 3rd birthday Saturday night....during the snow storm going on outside. We had a small crowd, but certainly a fun one!! Here Bradley is ready to blow the candles out on his cake.
I would like to share with you that Bradley dressed himself today, and there was no convincing him of changing! He did, however, take the sweatshirt and hat off before the guests arrived. We took the birthday cake pictures before the party started.
He looks fabulous in his striped shirt with camo pants. He did forget to put on one more piece of clothing that you will find out about later in the blog.......keep reading....


The ladies....Missy, Tara & LaNita. Take note of the snow storm that you can see out the patio doors! We are staying inside, all warm & cozy!Another crew here.....Ken, Denny, Deb & Jack. Bill came later, as he was busy snow plowing. It was funny listening to the guys (Ken, Denny, Jack & Bill).....they had lots of stories to share with each other. I happen to catch a few of their stories while cleaning up in the kitchen.
Grandma Deb looked good. She looked like she was feeling good again.

Pat & Denny left the warm Florida weather to come home to a cold Wisconsin. It was nice to see them! They will fill their time in Minnesota & Wisconsin with family & friends; and the grandkids' games & events.
It can be a challenge to get the Dorwin boys to smile for a picture, but they did pretty good! Uncle tried to give Bradley a wedgie, but soon realized that Bradley did not have underwear on!! Aunt Pat, Tara & Paul...
Todd, Missy & Jack in the background. We were glad that Jack could join us!
Grandpa Ken & Grandma Deb read books with Carter Saturday night as they stayed over night due to the very slippery roads. Grandpa Ken....
Present time......Bradley opening his gifts....
The Bee Movie, from Auntie Missy & Uncle Todd. Bradley's favorite movie!
Auntie getting the Little People airplane ready for Bradley to play with. Don't you just hate all those twisty ties???
Another present to open....
A remote control car from Auntie Tara & Uncle Paul...
And some garden tools. I love these little garden tools!! Bradley did, too, as he was "weeding" the carpet. He knew just what to do with these tools!
Tara was very kind to take lots of pictures for me during the gift opening. Thanks Tara! Tara has a new hair style, which looks very nice.

The Dorwin cousins....Dylan, Cruz, Bradley, Carter & Paige. Carter showing his Star Wars Galaxy figures from Grandma Deb & Grandpa Ken.

Bradley and Carter attacking the birthday cake the night prior to the birthday party. I made another one the next day! :-)

Thanks, everyone, for joining us for Bradley's birthday party. We had lots of fun and it was good to see everyone again. We will all be seeing each other again soon with Christmas just around the corner.

The boys and cousins had their Christmas program at church today (Sunday). I will hopefully be able to post the pictures early this week!

Have a great week everyone!
