Can You Believe Alexis Chose A Dinosaur Birthday?


If you know her at all, you will not be surprised that Alexis chose a dinosaur theme for her birthday party. This year she did most of the planning, which was bittersweet. I am glad she knows what she wants and can make it happen, but planning parties is MY job. I like it and don't want to give control over to the girls. We worked together to compromise on things. It turned out pretty nicely. And best of all, she had fun!


She decorated her invitations with help from Emi and I

The goodie bags.

Dino style goodie bags of course.


Each guest got a goodie bag, binoculars, and a dino hat.


One of the free-play activities.

And dinosaur prints for the other free-play activity.
Bones= candy teeth, chocolate skeleton and pretzels and marshmallows covered in chocolate.

This was so much fun to make. It ended up looking like it was boxing.
Philip created our t-rex melon


Such a tasty scene.
The cake



Dinosaurs greeted you at every turn.
