Bradley wanted a Thomas the Train party this year! He really wanted a train set for his birthday, so he figured it could be a big train party!
As I was getting everything ready the night before, Jared was trying to help out and he went ahead and took over the cake decorating. He did a great job!
Our little engineer and his big sister all ready for his party!
Bradley Station: This is where you got on track #3

Posing with all his presents
Bradley wanted grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup for his birthday dinner
We made a railroad track all around the house complete with mountains and tunnels. The kids loved it. Bradley ran around it over and over again being Thomas the Train. Jacob even walked around saying a cute little "choo choo" the whole time.
I thought I'd try making a pinata like April always does. Bradley requested a duck pinata. I would like to retire from the pinata making business but Mackayla is already planning what kind she wants me to make for her birthday. So, I'm not out of the business quite yet.
Trying to "quack" the pinata open
Jacob took a swing at the pinata but had actually become quite fond of the little duck over the last few days and cried when everyone was hitting it.
Enjoying Bradley's new blanket
He loves his new shield and is now better able to fight dragons.
On the morning of his birthday we were able to start the day off with a quick Happy Birthday song before Dad left for work.
Playing with his new train set the next morning
Bradley is so proud to be a three year old! Although he still loves playing with Mackayla, he is a total boy at heart. He loves to run, jump, tackle and climb. He loves trucks, trains, cars, construction, swords and of course his beloved light saber. We sure love him!
