On Saturday we celebrated Andrew's 3rd birthday. This was actually the first birthday ever celebrated for him! We were in Russia last summer when he turned 2 but did not get to see him as his birthday fell on a weekend and we could not visit the orphanage... So he has had almost a full year to learn about birthdays! After a year of getting to know him we decided a "tool" party would be the perfect fit for him...He LOVES to fick (fix) things=)
He was excited about getting to use Pa's real tools to get the party set up!
He's ready for work!
The tool stations!
We had 4 big boxes that we made "repair" shops out of...just like Handy Manny!
All the kids worked really hard at painting the boxes!
Hard at work!
The finished products.
We can't forget the back of the box!
All done!
Opening presents...he is a pro after Christmas!
Getting ready for cake!
Pinata time!!
He had a great birthday with lots of fun! After all our family left..he and his sisters continued playing in the boxes! They played all afternoon, then the next day, and even slept in them!! Who says you need toys! A big box is alot of fun!
