The day started with lots of decorations.
Brooklyn wearing her fantastic 3rd birthday dress that I found at a consignment sale.
We celebrated in the morning with yummy donuts at a little shop in Guthrie, Oklahoma with some friends.
I made a really yummy cake.
It was WAY too hot to go to the zoo, but Brooklyn wanted to spend some time with animals. So we visited the local pet store. And the great worker there brought out some animals for Brooklyn to play with and hold. She held a few dogs, a gerbil, a ferret, etc. It was actually preferrable to the zoo!
Brooklyn asked for Chick Fil A for dinner. Her birthday was the same day as the Chick Fil A appreciation day. We wanted to just see what the store looked like, and of course it was completely packed. As we were trying to decide whether or not to stay, a woman came up, handed us $10 and asked us to use it to help pay for our meal. She couldn't wait in the line, but wanted to show her support. We decided now we have to stay! Kids loved it, had a few friends there to play with, and it was a very enjoyable dinner.
We then took the cake and presents to our family's house to celebrate there. Which, after a long day, the kids were a little on fire! Cannon and Leif ran into each other, Cannon getting the bad end of accident!
Had a few conversations with my dad, to make sure we knew what would be red flags to look for. But, it turned out to be a VERY bad black eye. Poor Cannon!
