Fun with Dora :)

 Liam's buddy Savannah turns 3 exactly 1 month before he does. This year, to celebrate, she had a Dora party! It was SO cute, I had to post!
 The birthday girl herself! Isn't she a sweetie?!
 Love the birthday shirt!
 The kids colored some Dora pictures while they waited for everyone to arrive. The party was at church. 
 Once everyone got there, we were ready to start our birthday party. But upon opening the cake box, we discovered the cake was MISSING! Who could have swiped the birthday cake?!
 We had to go on an adventure to find the missing birthday cake. After donning our backpacks and taking a peek at the map, we realized we needed to go through the Fiesta Forrest, over the Crocodile Creek, through the Candy Cave, and then we'd make it to the birthday party!
 Here are the kids in Fiesta Forrest... rescuing baby animals!
 And below is the crocodile creek. The bridge was missing some pieces, though... so we had to check our backpacks to find the shape that fit in the right spot so we could walk across (how stinkin' cute?!)
 After we crossed the bridge we played pin the bow tie on Boots. 
 Look at Liam (below)!
 And our buddy Breleigh... oh so serious!
 After we were finished with Boots, we had to check our backpack for our flashlights... the Candy Cave was next, so we needed to be prepared! 
 Here we are heading into the Candy Cave! The kids were SO excited! 
 It was pretty dark in there... lots of big black rocks (i.e. balloons) and lots and lots of Candy we needed to gather! 
 When we made it through the Candy Cave... we made it to the Birthday Party! And we found the cake that Swiper had swiped! Seriously... how cute was this party?!
 After singing Happy Birthday and eating cake and icecream, the kids had a ball playing with balloons.
 Savannah opened her presents... LOTS of Princess things, especially Rapunzle (Tangled) toys... 
...including this Rapunzle wig! How funny!
 Ms. April trying out the wig...
 Then we headed outside to play on the playground... still donning the wig.
 Merry-go-round, fun with friends
 Liam with his buddy Breleigh. Aren't they cute?!
 So much fun!
 Tire swings + buddies = JOY!
 Josh (Alleigh's dad) decided to try on the wig too. 
 Nice look for him, don't you think?
 When we got home, Daddy asked me where I put the camera because he wanted to take a picture (and I quote) "of the kids holding hands with their backpacks on." I thought that was cute of him.
Anyway, hard to believe Savannah is 3 now... and little man will be right around the corner. I better get to work... this boy tells me he wants a Puppy Party. Still trying to figure that one out! :)

Until then...
