Marshall turned four this year and boy, did he do it in style!
It all started when Granny offered to buy the decorations for his party in lieu of a birthday present. My mom is a talented hostess so when you combine that with her 30+ years of experience as an elementary school teacher, you get a really good party!
Granny and Marshall spent a week before the party working hard to get things ready. By party day we had lots of dino activities! They filled swimming pools with sand for the "Dino Dig" in which the kids got to dig for "real" dino skeletons and bones. They built nests, filled them with eggs and hid them throughout the house for the kids "Dino Egg Hunt". They even built a dino cave for the kids to play in and draw cave paintings inside and they blew up lots of inflatable dinosaurs for decoration (and for play too! ;). They also put out lots of coloring supplies and dino stickers for Marshall and his friends to do.
And all their hardwork paid off. The result was a party that in the kids' words was "The best birthday party ever!".
I can't believe my little baby is 4 years old already. How time flies when you are having fun! :)
