Birthday-Palooza 2012

Caroline enjoying the very last cupcake of the birthday-palooza sugar stash.
Whew! Last week was a whirlwind of presents, cake, cookies, and partying for the Hepper family! I don't know how I am going to handle three birthdays in one week year in and year out. We decided to throw a 3-for-1 birthday party at our house this year with the hopes that none of the girls would notice that they were sharing a celebration. It worked like a charm, but I'm envisioning years ahead when I'll be hearing, "I want my own party!" We'll cross that bridge when we get it to, I guess.
Anyways, aside from being approximately a billion degrees outside, I am happy to report that the party was a success! We had a frog bounce house, a face painter, Chick-fil-A nuggets, and of course, cake. What more could you want?? We were blessed with a great group of guests which included friends, neighbors, and even a couple out of towners.
Without further adieu, here are a slew of pictures from all the birthday festivities last week...

Behold! The birthday frog bounce house!

Margaret excited about her smash cake.
Mmmmm.....delicious!
This pretty much sums up every meal. Julia finds Margaret's food much more interesting, even though it's the same as her own.
Family pic minus Caroline. She could not be convinced to leave the bounce house.

Now that I'm one, I can stand all by myself!
So can I (and I did it first!)
This picture sums up how Mommy is getting through the week after the birthday-palooza festivities (lots of coffee!)
