Catherine turns 3-part I

Here is the first set of photos from Catherine's birthday party held at our house this past Friday (our Saturday). She had a cake in the shape of a # 3 made by the American Club. It was yummy! Check out her 2nd birthday photos on this blog and you will see a cake in the shape of a TWO! Don't look too close at Dave's photo from last year though, we realized he had on the exact same shirt!

Catherine wore her party dress (put it on at 7Am for a noon party!) and celebrated with many of her friends. The cut outs from the round cakes to form the number 3 were apparently used to make a cake house. With remnants of cake and house left over we dubbed this first picture the "mooky house". Kristine and Michelle are fully briefed on the "mooky" concept....for those who are not...leftover cake which consists of small crumbs, large hunks of cake and misc. icing and frosting on a plate are considered the "mooky cake". Often this can be the best part of the cake. Catherine is still asking for more "mooky house"!

The child in the green shirt is Henry, Catherine's twin as they share the same birthday. Henry was born same day, a few hours later in Boston. The other day he referred to Catherine as his "girlfriend".
