The Long Family

October 13th Malias turned three years old!

Its a little hard to believe he is three already, but mostly I feel like he has been in our family forever so three doesn't seem old enough.

We had Grandma Long and Aunt "Mo Mo" with us for the last week(which we LOVED), so they were here for his birthday. We just  invited family over and had the typical B-day bash...with a pinata. haha.

He had been eying a big remote control fire truck at Toy-R-Us for a couple months and has been loving all things Fire Truck for, forever (like most any thing with wheels), So we did a Fire Truck themed birthday.

It was pretty fun to prepare for and I think he loved it. 

That's my favorite part. 

When he walked into the kitchen and saw me finishing up his cake...the way his eyes just lit up with happy excitement and I knew he loved it.

I am copying this idea from a friends blog because I have seen a few people do it and I just think its so cute.

 He is so funny. I am not sure if that is a true reflection of him, but that is what makes it so fun/funny and cute. I can't wait to see how his answers change as the years go by.

OK, well lastly here a couple photos from of the birthday and my sweet 3 year old. 

We love you handsome boy!
