Gwen's 3rd Birthday Party and our finished Master Bedroom

I debated and debated about doing Gwen's Birthday party on the 31st because I had been in preterm labor for a month. I was finally off of bed rest and I decided to do a simple party (simple for me) compared to my normal all out serve food and have two or three cakes and all that stuff that I love to do. So we just had a cupcake open house, come as you please and eat a cupcake. I think it turned out great. I was dumb though and never got pictures of the guests as is my usual fault at all parties! We had a great turn out though and quite a few of Gwen's friends from church came. She seemed happy with it and so was I! I'm glad I did it on that day because now I feel like I was a good mom to her and we celebrated and we didn't ignore her just because of the baby coming so close to her birthday. I hate that I will be having 2 kids birthdays so close together! Its really going to hinder my party throwing! =o) So here are the pictures of the decorations and the singing of Happy Birthday and the blowing out of the candle.

Brian's Wall: all of his guitar stuff, record player, even his own framed photos, and the stripe that he created.
