Mia's 3rd Birthday in Pictures!

Mia Mooi, you are the luckiest three-year old in the world.  You had a whole weekend of birthday celebrations, filled with family and friends, balloons and cake, presents and fun!

Let me tell you all about it:

It is a birthday tradition, that on the morning of your birthday, you wake up to balloons in your room.  This year we did red and black balloons, to stick to your Minnie Mouse party theme. You loved it, you were quite in awe when you woke up, and mommy and pappa walked in singing happy birthday and taking photos of you!

 

Another birthday tradition, is that you get cupcakes for breakfast.  Three candles!

 

You chose your 'rokkie' that you wanted to wear. Oumi and Oupi arrived with more presents for you, what fun to tear the paper off and discover what's inside!

We had a birthday lunch with all the family that could come: Mia, Mommy, Pappa, Oumi and Oupi, Granny and Oupa, Tuppy and Briget, Aunty Boo, Maggie, Laurie and Tazzy were all there to sing happy birthday to you!

 
The jumping castle we hired for your birthday party was delivered early, and you could jump and play the whole weekend. Such fun!

 

Time for the Minnie Mouse party!

All the little friends got given mouse ear alice bands.

 

Birthday girl all dressed up!  You looked SO beautiful, everyone was ooh-ing and aa-ing over you!  It was a chilly day, but that didn't stop us from having lots of fun!

 

Yummy cupcakes that mommy made!

 

Looks so festive and jolly!  The jumping castle was a huge hit, all the friends loved it.

We got you this life-size Minnie balloon, I was worried that you would be a bit scared of it, but oh no, you loved her!

Waiting for your party guests to start arriving, cutest lil hostess!

Everyone sang to you and you blew your candles out so beautifully.

We had a little planting activity, where all the friends could each plant their own seedling, this was also lots of fun for everyone!

All in all, your birthday was magical and happy and wonderful, just how I wanted it to be for you.  You had moments of being a bit overwhelmed by all the attention, but mostly you enjoyed yourself a lot.

You are a blessed, lucky, happy little three-year old! ♥ I love you so much.
