Riley's third birthday

We celebrated Riley's third birthday with a bunch of our family and friends on Sunday, December 8. We decided to host her party at the Little Gym again since we had such a great time last year. Justin and I love how easy they make it on us! We show up with a cake and any decorations we want and they set up and entertain the kids the entire time! Since our Disney cruise Riley is all about everything Disney, so the party theme this year was Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Unfortunately the Thursday before the party Riley started with a fever and the doctor confirmed she had strep throat. Luckily we got a shot of penicillin and within 24 hours she was feeling back to normal. Thank goodness Granny was available to came to town a day early to stay home with Riley and nurse her back to heath. First week of work and I already had a sick kid! I thought the party came together very well and we had a great turnout! I found a lady at my gym that makes cakes out of her home so we used her this time to make the birthday cake and I could not have been more pleased with how it came out! Here are some photos from our little princesses special day:

Riley's dance studio did a little Christmas production. I did not get a good video because I only had my phone and it was Freezing outside and packed but you will get the idea when you see the video.
