Jackson's 3rd Birthday this year was a very laid back event. The past two birthdays have been fairly big. This year, due to schedule conflicts for setting a date, we decided to just have family for his party. We had the first party on Saturday with my family (minus Anne, Danny, and Luke who were at the beach- we missed them!). My Mom and Dad took Jackson out to lunch at his favorite place (Chick-fil-a) and then out to the mall. Liz, Becky, Alan, and I (Chase too- but he wasn't very helpful) then went to work at setting up streamers, balloons, banners, making and decorating cupcakes, and donning party hats. We all hid in the dining room and heard Jackson coming in saying "Hey guys!" "Guys?" "Look! Balloons! Ooh!!" Then we all jumped out at Jackson yelling SURPRISE when they brought him inside and he went from looking slightly terrified to completely ecstatic!
He then proceeded to grab a birthday horn and march around the house with us blowing the horn and laughing.
The birthday horn Jackson wouldn't put down.
Chase did not love Jackson's party.
My favorite pic of the day!
Jackson's football Auntie Anne made him. It's PERFECT because he's allowed to throw it in the house. Check out her other custom made creations:
Anne's ETSY shop SO CUTE.)
A wonderful nap time break with sisters and parents.
Post dinner walk- working off the cupcakes.
The next day (Jackson's actual birthday), my family packed up and headed home. We met with the Janney family that evening for a fun dinner at Red Robin and then came back for another birthday party and for cupcakes and ice cream.

Debbie (Nana) with Jackson and his new bike. How cute is she in her skinny jeans!? Jackson had a blast and got lots of fun presents that he was eager to open up and show how they worked to Megan, Nana, and Papa. We sang him Happy Birthday and he blew out another set of candles. He definitely woke up on Monday wondering if it was still his birthday since he'd had such an epic weekend with all of his favorite people (minus Anne, Danny, and Luke).
Happy Birthday to my beautiful three year old. I love your sensitivity, your amazing sense of humor, your sweet attitude towards your baby brother, your wonderful hugs, your endless curiosity, your growing love for Jesus, your obsession with all things boy (sports, trains, planes, cars, ambulances, firetrucks, police cars, etc.). I love all the things that make you YOU, Jackson Ryan Janney. It's been an incredible three years! =)
