Zach turned 3 on June 6th. We had a great day, he was very well behaved. (I was a bit shocked...ha ha). I think the fact that we had the party outside at a park where there was lots to do and lots of room to run around he did not become too overstimulated.
We went to Price Alderson Park in the Fort, which also has a spray park. I think we had 30 people...15 of those were kids...1 being 5 and the rest babies and toddlers! It was so nice to see everyone. The weather held out until the end when we were doing gift opening. We enjoyed hot dogs, veggies, chips, wraps, fruit, cake & ice cream. The kids greatly enjoyed the pinata and the goodie bags they received. And as you can see, it was a Thomas the Train themed party. The pics at the bottom of the collage show Zach's friend Ashley. He also turned 3 on June 6th. There is a definite size difference between the two, always has been. Ashley is a lot taller and around 22 pounds heavier! I'm glad we were able to celebrate his birthday as well.
This was Zach's first "big" birthday party and I think it was a success. Can't wait to do it all again next year.
On May 29th we had some interesting weather! We ended up getting rain that turned into snow. There were times when the snowflakes were huge!! It looked really fluffy outside I guess you could say. There was wind too which make it seem much colder. I felt a little Christmasey for a bit!!
Luckily, this weather did not stick around. Here are some pics and videos from this weather system. (If I recall...Calgary got a lot more snow than we did...that always seems to be happen!) :)
