The Rest! of the Story

3/14/11

(the story of Jake's 4th Birthday Bash, that is).

And I can't believe it's been a week already, but that's when it happened.

On March 6th at 2pm, the Birthday Banner was hung (Made With Love by: Mommy using 1 HP Deskjet Printer, 1 Creative Memories Circle Cutting System, 2 Rolls of Ribbon - 1 Gold and 1 Red, and Tons of Scrapbook Paper)...


there was food on the table (Made With Love by: Grandma, Ingredients: 1 T-Rex Cookie Cutter and 1 Stegosaurus Cookie Cutter, 1 Box of Ritz Crackers, 1 Bunch of Grapes, 3 Pounds of Strawberries, 1 Bowl of Fruit Dip, Dozens of Homemade Sugar Cookies - in the shape of dinosaurs, of course, 4 Celery Stalks, 1 Package of Baby Carrots, 1 Bowl of Veggie Dip, 1 Package of Pretzel Sticks, 3 Dozen Cupcakes, and 4 Birthday Candles for the Birthday Boy to blow out)...



there were Dinosaurs to be hunted (purchased at Amazon.com from Jet Creations)...





there were Dino Eggs to be hunted (purchased from Treasure Hunt and filled with candy)...


there were Dino Bones to be excavated (purchased from Michael's Arts & Crafts Store and Constructed With Love by: Grandpa)...




and there were Gift Bags to be given (loaded with everything fun and all about dinosaurs for Jake's guests to do at home).


But best of all, there was family, there were threats not to open presents too early, there was shedding our cares that it was barely 60 degrees out, there was excitement, there were funny voices from inhaling helium, there was laughter, and there were priceless, precious, unforgettable memories made with our little boy who turned 4!
