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.
