The Little Man Turns 3 - Party #1


Almost 3 years ago to the moment (1152pm EST), our little man joined the world -- hard to believe! To appropriately celebrate the festivities, our resident party planner concocted the theme of "Chef Carter's", a restaurant owned and operated by a just-turned 3-year old, encouraging all attendees to "Mess with the best!"


Every attendee at the party had their own personalized apron waiting for them upon arrival....




But, Chef Carter's main event planner had just gotten started...


What does every good chef need?    A chef hat, of course...


So, upon arrival at the party, each guest (23 kids in all), stopped off to design and personalize their own individual chef hats...



Once the hats were complete, it was time to move to the first food station -- CUPCAKES.



Then, once the cupcakes had been whisked away into the ovens, it was time for station number two -- MAKE YOUR OWN PIZZA...



Pizza-making complete, we were able to get a picture of almost everyone in attendance...


Then, by a special type of birthday-party magic, the cupcakes were ready to be decorated with a customized (and personalized in some cases!) mix of icing and candies...






The crew then moved over for a sit-down lunch, featuring Carter's favorites -- PB&J, goldfish, drink boxes, cheese and pretzels!


What a party!

I ran into your Mom at the Library and saw your Dad at the Bank a few days later. I am Praying for your Mom. Shaun played little league with you and your Dad and Shaun's Dad were co-captains. I tried to write something on another screen but there was no picture for me to tell about. Shaun had no children. He lives in Maryland and was married Aug., 2008. I hope all is well with everyone and your children are precious.
