The event planner diploma is a cool thing to have, but you have worked this up completely from your own experience.<br /><br />I am glad all these kids have had an 'over-the-top' party or two, when it came to theme, decor, fancy food, activity, etc. But it is true that the less stress involved, the more we all tend to enjoy being together. Not to mention how much easier the clean-up is afterwards!<br /><br />I love that memory of you frosting the cupcakes. I have the pic in my minds-eye, can't remember if there is a photo or not.<br /><br />love,<br />The people are the best part of birthdays<br />in<br />NE<br /><br />p.s.

I've learned to spot clean beforehand and mop up when it's all said and done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6332984891374985655.post-66277327019691866982012-06-22T07:24:10.058-05:002012-06-22T07:24:10.058-05:00Wish you could plan my parties!

Trying to let go a little, but it's hard. Someone told me to make sure the corners are clean and relax on the other. Good advice! But I probably won't listen.The Chairman's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13951585047642268747noreply@blogger.com
