Puppy Party for Reid!

If you know Reid, you know he loves three things; his family, cars, and dogs! (Not necessarily in that order. ;) Since our next door neighbor recently agreed to let us walk her dog, Reid has been a little obsessed with puppies. So for his party this year we did our best to make sure he had a doggone good time.

The invitations...

Puppy paw cupcakes.
Notice the awesome balloon puppy Eric made.
I have a little puppy and he won't bite you and he won't bite you, but he will bite you! Run Caleb, run!
We also had a puppy relay race. The kids had to run and get a dog bone (gingerbread cookie) and then run back on all four's like a dog. It was hilarious.

Presents! Reid was so spoiled!
Cupcake heaven.
I think they like them!
Eric stayed busy making balloon animals! The plan was to make lots of dogs, but Eric's creative side won out :P Here's Caitlyn posing with her two headed dragon.
For the Auburn fans... (Eric made a red elephant hat too, but somehow I didn't get a picture)
Isn't Sam a great model? So pretty.
The After Party

Reid wasn't ready to crash after everyone left so the kids took out all his fun new toys and started playing with them.
The after party ended up outside (Reid's FAVORITE place to be). Reid cruised for awhile.
My very happy, very dirty three-year-old.
The only sad part of the day was when Reid slipped and gave himself a fat lip. We put some ice on it and watched Bolt. I don't think either of us watched more than ten minutes. :)
