Josiah's birthday was actually last Sunday sandwiched between the wedding and skyjump. For reasons of sanity we decided to postpone his celebration to the following weekend. We had a small, low- key gathering with friends which was just perfect. Josiah is so proud to be three and loves to show perfect strangers his three fingers and say "I'm this many"
We walked to this beach near our house and met up with Josiah's buds Malcolm and Jack along with their families
Guess who forgot to bring swimsuits. . . not a problem!
After playing at the beach we walked over to a BBQ site (pronounced Be- be-Q in HK) and they have a bounce house for kids- fun!
Annette practiced her walking with Jamila (she CAN walk now, but prefers to crawl)
The guys and the meat
For dessert we baked chocolate cake over the fire inside of hollowed out oranges. It turned out soo yummy and moist especially with buttercream frosting on top.
It was such a fun, relaxed birthday. We love you Josiah and are so thankful for three wonderful years with you!!

Love his haircut.
Can't believe he's 3.
Please share the cake in an orange recipe. Because I wanted to lick my computer.
