...WILD...

I have a confession...

Throwing birthday parties for my kids is not a highlight for me. In the beginning, I would just throw a family party, and those were just fine. Plus, we lived in areas where my kids didn't know a whole lot of other kids, and it just worked out.

Once we moved into our own home in an area filled with kids, my kids suddenly wanted friend birthday parties, and it was not something I looked forward to. Entertaining kids is not really a forte of mine, I'll be honest. However, I don't like to disappoint my kids either, so I'd try to figure something out when a friend's party was requested.

Kiddo #4 has a birthday that usually falls around Easter, so I'm usually trying to get Easter figured out as well. Throwing a party in that same time frame was hard, but thankfully, on this kid's 6th birthday, he just requested a zoo theme. He actually wanted to go to the zoo, but we didn't have the budget for that, so an animal party it was. 

We played a Bingo game, and I had found some other animal type games to play as well. As a last minute thought, I made a lion and elephant mask, and they turned out be a hit. 

When I saw Boomer's Girl Designs' newest release, Zoo Babies, I knew those cute little animal elements would work well with my son's birthday party pics. I went to work and enjoy the finished product. I also think it's really cool that my kid is still good friends with 3 of the 5 kids that were at his party that day.
