Party Recap...
My Daughter wanted a "horse" themed equestrian party. As things grew and grew (and grew...) it turned into a horse/ cowgirl/ western themed party instead. The kids had so much fun! They roasted hot dogs and marshmallows over the fire, (bbq pit) in the backyard, and played all kids of western themed games. They also got to take home a very full bag each of western themed candies from our "general store". Special thanks to Aunt Myrna, and Uncle Steve for the use of their BBQ!
