Dylan's 4th Birthday "Friends" Party

Oh you can only imagine (unless you have kids - then you know) how excited Dylan has been about her birthday!  The big 4 - uh, how did that happen?  This year we had her friends' party at a super fun place called Moon Paper Tent on Saint Patty's Day.  We got to pick a theme, the kiddo's dressed in costumes, had their sweet little faces painted, made magic wands, and acted out a story.  It was tons and tons and TONS of fun and some good laughs as well. It was fun to watch each kiddo come in and take it all in, some were shy at first and didn't want to dress up (Dylan included) but once they warmed up there was no stopping the creativity.

Dylan welcoming her guests.
"Oh for me, you shouldn't have Alder"

Momma Shannon helping Miles and Gigi with their costumes.


Sweet Ella in her party dress

Transformation into a magical fairy


Momma Traci and Alder

I loved how Gigi was a bit shy about dressing up but in a short period she transformed into Madonna (it was one of my favorite costumes of the day)

"Magic mirror tell me who is the fairy-ist of them all"

This is not Alder it's super pup, now get it straight would you


Sam getting prepped

super pup to the rescue or perhaps just fixing his hair?

Miles and Gigi, wait I'm sorry it's Sir Miles and Lady Madonna

Momma Kelly reading the girls or fairies a book

Happy 4th Cake Day Dylan!













Neve having a great time.  I had to put extra frosting on the cupcakes to get the worms to stick so each kid left with face paint, a chocolate goatee, and a huge smile.

Auntie Beans and sweet passed out Asa Bean

A quick bottle and book before leaving

Sleepy D

I think it's safe to say from the last photo that the party was a hit!  Happy Cake Day sweet D - we love you!  And thank you to all her magical and wonderful friends for helping us celebrate Dylan turning 4 years old.
