It's all about Julia!

Julia just had her 3rd birthday on Sunday. We had a big party for her on Saturday evening at the local park. She was so excited about it all day long, I wasn't sure if she would make it to party time. She had fun playing with her friends and opening presents and of course eating cake! I took a bunch of pictures to share with everyone.
We bought her a new "Big Kid" bike for her birthday with training wheels, it was fun to watch her learn to ride it. We thought it might take her a week or so to get it down, but alas, she is too smart, and had it figured out in less than a day.
All in all, it was a fun day. Enjoy the pictures!
