Here we are at Catriona's 3rd birthday party, a few days before her actual birthday. And here's the birthday girl! She's really happy to have an actual party. Dante is here. Ailish grins for the camera. Hello Max! The balloon game was a big hit. Max's Dad and Dante's Mom watch from the sidelines. And we're done. The balloon game lasted longer than *I* expected. Grammy and Ailish enjoy a snack while the other kids start in on Hullabaloo(tm). Max is doing a "Funky Dance". Everyone stand on Purple. More snackage. Mostly cheese and melon. Next year we may have to include some junk food too. They started running in a ring: down the slide, play on the piano, back up to slide again. Weeeee.... Dante gets the award for the best use of cupcake icing! Out comes the playdough. Always a favourite with the three year old demographic. Rosie grows hair. Rosie left Catriona's daycare when her brother, Zach, was born, so it's been months since the girls had seen each other. Catriona extrudes. I like this shot. And a quiet round of storytelling ends the party.
