Alexander's 3rd Birthday Party - Newell style

If there is one thing my Mother has taught me it's that everyone needs to celebrate their Birthday. If there is one thing my cousin Cyndi taught me it's that you can never have enough BIRTHDAY PARTIES!
Alexander turned 3 on June 4th and I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I didn't get to celebrate his Birthday with him. Daddy, Zac, was kind enough to humor me and my family by allowing us to have a "traditional" Newell Birthday party. The theme was "CARS" and Grandma JJ (Alexander calls my Mom this) made the cake and it was just about as cute as it could be. We had the traditional "money in the cake", the favorite "candy game", and sang the repertoire of birthday songs. I'm not sure what Alexander thought or his Father for that fact, however, if their is one thing we Newell's believe in it's that we will make up any excuse to have a party.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEXANDER! We love you.

Every child that knows you is lucky to have you in their lives, especially little Alex. I'm so grateful that my girls will always be able to look up to a great friend like you.
