My "Hot Tamales" are turning THREE!

Well...it's happening...my babies will soon be turning THREE.  *sigh*  How on earth did THAT happen so quickly?!?  Picking out a theme this year was easy of course.  They may not wear the hats 24/7 anymore, but that has not lessened their *deep* love for all things related to firetrucks.  :)

In researching our party options, we came across the most incredible deal ever.  There is a local firefighter named Mike who actually purchased his very own firetruck to rent out for birthday parties!!  It is incredible!  Not only can the kids climb all over the truck and use the fire hose, but he also teaches fire safety, runs drills with them, reviews "stop, drop and roll" and teaches them about all the gear used by the firefighters.  This is Tommy and Cole's nirvana.  Just seeing the truck in their driveway should be enough to make their whole year!!!
We just sent out the kids invites and they came out really cute.  We used the photo above as part of it.  The boys can not believe that people are actually going to bring them presents they can open and keep.  I think they are finally going to *get* the whole birthday thing this year.  Cole is convinced he will be getting a "jungle jeep" or a pickup truck.  Tommy of course wants a LONG firetruck (like he needs another!) and a spotted Dalmatian puppy like the real firemen have.   So cute and random.  I'm sure their list will change every day.  Nana is making the cake...so can't go wrong there.  Now, let's just hope for nice weather!!
