Kelsey's Birthday Party

August 25, 2012 by Raquel 2 Comments

I have been planning for my daughters birthday for a few weeks, and decided to have it at the Museum of Nature and Science at Fair Park in Dallas. They have a variety of age appropriate parties to choose from and we chose to have the Mystery Party. They did their finger prints, chromatography, and they went on a mystery hunt where there were clues and they had to trek it all around the museum and Fair Park to find the right clues. http://natureandscience.org/kids/birthdays Considering all that is involved, the cost was fair and pretty standard as I researched other party options.

I love doing things that are educational, and if something fun can be added, that is a plus. I admit that I am not a party planner, and I did have some assistance. My Disney buddy ( @Ehugh) suggested her sister @jhgive who gave me so many suggestions to go along with my theme :o). I finally decided on one of the invites that she found on Etsy: THANK YOU TO HER~!!!

She then provided some ideas as far as decorations, etc, and I was able to mimic especially the favors. I did not spend very much, as I found most of them on sale,etc.
Now fast forward to the present……
We arrived at the venue at 10:00 AM, and was met by the young lady (Drary) who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of the subject. She worked really well with the kids and for that all the parents seemed grateful. LOL
The Finger Printing Station.
The Chromatography Station
I tried to set up the table, thankfully my appointed Party Planner (Kirsten) arrived!! :o)
A Shot of what the kids were served, minus the cake LOL :o)
Such a creative gift, given my a friend of mine (Savanah!).
Miss Thing is happy and that Makes me happy :o)
Another Gift that was given by my Friend (Savanah). I am so wishing I was this creative! 
Of course the Dude is excited!! I think that he thought it was HIS party LOL
A Shot after it was set up, before the kids returned. :o)

When it is all said and done, I am thankful for the assistance, and for the day. It is always great to have friends that are willing to jump in and help not because they are expecting something, but because they want to. Thanks Kirsten, Savanah, and Vicky for helping me today! I am happy it is over, but if I had to do it all over again, I would do again. Anything for her!! :o)
