The BIG Party -

Okay you know when you do something and you start to do it small and then it ends up getting really really BIG? Well that is what happened to ADL's 3rd Birthday Party. We started out wanting something small and at home - then debated crazy things like a moon bounce in the back yard, having the party in the house or takings kids on a train ride.... What were we thinking? So we decided to have everyone to ADL's favorite place - My Gym to celebrate his big day. We had about 17 three year olds, which as you can imagine made me very glad to not have everyone in the house. They ran, climbed, played and ate cake and pizza. It was a whirlwind of excitement and fun including of course the pre-requisite sugar shock. Alessandro played games, enjoyed happy birthday and jumped on the trampoline until he was literally ready to pass out. Not to mention at the end he and all his little friends rode the zip line across the gym laughing and smiling all the way. Come on what is not to love??? Thanks to everyone who came and those of you who sent good vibes and warm birthday wishes. And for those of you who were ever so generous to send all those fabulous gifts - you should see our living room - it is like Christmas Part II down there. We so appreciate it and ADL is literally flying high with excitement for all the new loot, birthday cards, calls and love. MANY THANKS! XOXOXO

P.S. My sister and I have 1001 photos and videos from the day but we are very sensitive to photos of other children on my little page - if you would like to see them give me a buzz and I will shoot some right over to you - also look out for your thank you notes with a little extra goodie.
