You say it's your birthday...

So, yesterday was Jaime's birthday party. We had it quite late because she wanted to have it at the movie theater and both her movie choices, Pink Panther 2 and Coraline, didn't open until this weekend. Sadly, Coraline's movie time didn't mesh with the party time, so we ended up seeing the Pink Panther. (Why? Why, lord why do you torture me so?) Of course the kids loved it, so in the end I guess that's what matters... That and she got a nice pink party theme...



I'm a big fan of stress free parties. I would much rather pay more to have a party outside of my home and has built in entertainment. So, Regal Cinemas was the way to go. We got "VIP treatment" from the manager , led to our own section and then they brought all the snacks out to the kids in the theater instead of having to wait in any lines. Not having to worry about these things was quite nice. But the extra bonus was the tour of the theater.



The kids really enjoyed he tour, as did I. As an added bonus, Jaime got to start one of the movies, which was a very exciting thing for a ten year old. They also gave her a free movie poster and film strips for all the kids. Overall, another successful birthday party. And Jaime is already planning next year's party... Oh boy.

Who knew that a successful birthday party would be "work Sheila's old job for a minute"??

Sheila - I knew you'd appreciate this one!

And everyone else - Please ignore the Armageddon spam... I'll figure out how to delete it when I have more time...
