Art Birthday Party

We had a little birthday party for my middle daughter immediately after returning from two weeks in Europe. Needless to say, I knew there would be no time for mom’s typical creations and hired some help for the first time for one of my kids’ birthday parties.  We’ve had fairy parties, baseball parties (x2), swim […]
