Shrek and Fiona

This was the first Schuett birthday party we have been able to attend. All of Breyson and Sawyers parties have fallen on weekends that I have had to work, so we weren't missing Breyson's 3rd Birthday party since I am still on maternity leave (not for much longer though).

Andi and Aaron hosted a Shrek party (of Breyson's choosing of course). All eating items were named after something related to the movie, as were the decorations, games, and treat bags too. I didn't get a picture of the cake/cupcakes, but the cake was a small Shrek face, and then the cupcakes had green frosting and fondant shrek ears! Too cute.

It was evident that Rowan wasn't used to formal birthday parties, as she was much more interested in playing than in participating in party things. For example, she didn't play the food toss game, she didn't watch one gift get opened, nor did she take a swing at the pinata. She was either on the swing set, or riding a bike, or in the playroom (with other kids of course) but I was surprised she had her own plan for the party! There were 17 kids at the party total, so there were plenty of kids off on their own just like Rowan!
I didn't do the best job of taking pictures, but I got a few!

After the party we stopped to pick up Gizmo and were on our way home, as we had 2 sleeping kids in the car! That is what lots of playing and no napping does!
