Jaxon's 3rd birthday Party

Jaxon doesn't turn 3 until June 16th - but originally we were going to be in Utah in June so we wanted to have his friend party before we went. We found out our summer plans were changing and we wouldn't be going to Utah until late July a few days before the party so we decided to just go ahead with it anyway since the invitations were sent out and a few of our friends are moving this summer :(

I asked Jaxon what he wanted to do and he wanted to go swimming so we had a pool party! We are very lucky to have a friend that lives in a beautiful apartment complex with an AWESOME pool and she was nice enough to let us have the party there. The party was on Tuesday May 22nd from 6:00pm - 8:00pm. We were lucky and had the ENTIRE pool to ourselves! We provided dinner which consisted of hot dogs (they have a built in grill area at the pool which made it great for grilling hot dogs) pasta salad, veggies, chips, drinks, and of course cup cakes!!! I had all these cute decorations I was going to take - but it ended up being kind of windy (welcome to Lubbock) so we decided to keep it simple so we weren’t chasing party decor all over! Jaxon loved having his friends there swimming with him! After they swam for a while - we got Jax out - sang happy birthday to him and he opened his gifts! He got a lot of good stuff! We are spoiled with our awesome friends here! After he opened his gifts they swam some more. Jaxon was so cute and kept thanking everyone and he had so much fun! I am pretty sure he thinks it was the best day of his life - he was so happy and had so much fun! Here are a few pictures!

  1. Fun! I miss Jaxon so much! He's getting so big, it's unbelievable! I'm glad he had a great little birthday party with his friends. We'll have to have another little party for him when you guys get here. :)

  3. Jaxon's 3rd birthday Party Had so much fun and I just can't imagine that the adults also can have this match entertainment on a kid’s birthday. The planning of this birthday was really inspirational for me because these days I am also stuck on making plans for my son's birthday. I might book one of the beach side Los Angeles event venues for the fun family bad.
