A Special Day for a Special 3 Year Old

Our sweet Evelyn turned 3 years old this past week and she was very much looking forward to her birthday and the activities we had planned for the day. It started off with a fun trip to the L.A. Zoo, which was just perfect. Evelyn loves animals and enjoyed every moment we were there. Here Evelyn posed by the sign of one of the names of the gorillas, which happened to be Evelyn. The funny thing was the description of the gorilla was just about the same as our Evelyn. It reads, "Evelyn is the superstar of the family. Charismatic and intelligent, she seems to love the spotlight." Our little girl is so fun and full of life, and is such a great big sister to Ellouise. She is a very fast learner and loves to sing and dance. I love how she loves to go to nursery every Sunday and sing all the songs she is learning. Right now they are learning, "I Love to See the Temple," which is a classic and I love to hear her sing the words. We love her so much and know life just wouldn't be the same without her.




After the zoo we came home and got ready for our Minnie Mouse themed party!

I did my best to make her a Minnie Mouse cake and luckily it tasted oh so yummy.



It was a long day but very fun and just what a 3 year old had asked for. We had a great time spending it all together and seeing Evelyn enjoy her special day. Even after a long day Evelyn still found the time that evening to get her cover and feed her baby. What a good mommy she is, guess she's been watching me a little too much.
