Brooklyn’s 3rd birthday fell on a Thursday this year, so we made a day of it hanging out with her Mimi and Opa. We started the day with visiting the Detroit Historical Museum and Pewabic Pottery, and then ended the day with a little birthday celebration.
The kids enjoyed checking out the seats from various car models at the historical museum.
As you saw in the Auto Show pictures, Brooklyn has a thing for the Michelin Man. :)
Mimi and Opa’s car choice…
…the kids’ car choice. :)
After the historical museum it was off to Pewabic Pottery where Brooklyn got a birthday ornament to add to the Christmas tree this year.
When we got home, Brooklyn opened up a couple of presents from her great-grandmother, Nani.
And then it was time for cake! (Thanks Aunt Katie for the perfect birthday crown!!)
On Saturday, everyone worked to get ready for the party.
Brosnan sampled the donuts…
…while Mimi and Brooklyn frosted all of the cupcakes.
Sorry, if someone ate that one… :)
Brooklyn got ready for her party, wearing the outfit from her Nani, and then took her 3-year-old bear pictures.
And then it was off to the party. A lack of planning on my part resulted in a very small crowd, but we still had a great time!
After the party, it was time for a family dinner – great day!!
And then as soon as they were here, they were gone again. Mimi and Opa, thank you for coming such a long way to celebrate our little girl’s third birthday!
Brooklyn, we love you so much! You bring happiness to every day of our lives! Happy Birthday, big girl!!
~Love, Mommy and Daddy
