Dino Fun!

This year Sebastian celebrated his 4th birthday! This would be the first birthday in which he was able to invite other kids. Normally birthdays cause a certain level of anxiety for me that I already mentioned in a previous post, but this party was actually fun to plan! He chose a dinosaur theme, much to my relief, which very easy to plan for (I should mention that Seb originally chose a "motorcycle theme" for some reason I will never know but luckily for me, he became strangely fascinated with dinosaurs weeks before his birthday! Good thing- I have know idea where I would find motorcycle decorations!) I ordered dinosaur eggs for a dino egg hunt and dinosaur figurines for the kiddies to paint from Oriental Trading Co. I also picked up some dino themed decorations and a T-Rex pinata from Party City. The cake came from a local bakery in Mebane that was able to do a dino scene with dino candles to top it off. We had quite a houseful as our family, many of our neighbors, and 13 children showed up! Below are the pics. As you can see, the kids had a blast and Sebastian now has more dinosaurs then he knows what to do with!

Sebastian is dino form!
