Party Recap

Mia's 2nd Birthday "Camp Out".... we had a pony giving rides, bbq'ed burgers and hotdogs (and lots of other snacks), play tents and a teepee, s'mores bar, campfire, "fireflies in a jar" activity for the kids and ended the evening with an outdoor movie!

    Melissa, we have a dvd/blue ray projector and sound bar that was set up on a table at the edge of the yard, and we played it on the side of the house on a huge, white sheet. :) Good luck!
