Party Planning 101- get help

I know its been a bit quiet around here lately. We've kept ourselves pretty busy for the last couple weeks with a family project. I volunteered to help my best friend, Denise plan her daughter Gabby's 8th birthday party and if you know me, then you know without me saying that I went a bit over the top. This time I took everyone with me.

If you are familiar with Webkinz then the rest of this post makes perfect sense. If not just imagine that there is an online site for kids that has everything I'm talking about. (And it wouldn't hurt to just imagine that its something that I'm slightly obsessive about.)

Derek was commissioned to build a "wheel of wow."



Kaylee & Grandma made the pinata.


Kaylee painted the wishing well.


I made all the signs and organized the games and made the "gak." (Don't worry its just ice cream.




Denise ordered the cake, balloons & pizza.


Nate and Max suffered through everyone's distractions and constantly being told not to touch anything.

But I think the Party was a great success.


The birthday girl & all the guests had a great time and while finishing up the last bit of shopping for this party I discovered that Party City has a whole bunch of things on sale for 50 cents so I stocked up.... and I have some great ideas...... Now I just need a little help.......

anyone?
