We allowed Tater to have his birthday party now… in May… versus July. Why? Because all of his friends would be gone in July. Most not getting back until the week before school starts. And this would be the one time he could invite his entire class. Phew. We also decided to use my hubby’s bonus for it. Hence the money came in and went out and not a penny is left.
I fussed over the place the whole time. It was too small, too noisy, too bright for me. Particularly since we had 18 people say yes they would be coming to the party. Now I love being around people… and I can even be around kids… outside. In parks. Not in buildings.
The kids loved it, the other parents thought it was great… I was wiggin out. It was a bounce, arcade kind of place. Here are some pictures while the kids were eating cake:
It was too much for me. No joke. Then the room with the cake… had a ‘snow’ machine and a disco ball and an area for dancing. The kids went nuts over it. I’m sooooo done today. Give me a day or two to get my brain / body back in line.
I loathe those kinds of places, but kids usually love them. That’s all that matters, right?
Just frickin’ shoot me…
