I am at my g-daughter's 13th birthday party



Have you ever been in a house with fifteen (or so) 12/13 year old GIRLS. They are having a dance party - we moved the furniture out of the den so they could dance. We replaced the fan lights with black lights and put foil on the fan blades with a flashlight hanging below the fan shining up on the foil. It has a strobe effect - cool - but I had forgotten how giggley little teen girls can be!! LOL

My ears are bleeding!

Oh Gayle.......are you still able to hear at all? I can't imagine being in a house with that many 13 year olds at the same time!! All those shrill voices!!! Each one trying to talk louder than the others!!! You're a brave woman, Gayle!!!! I admire you!! The things we do for our grandchildren!!!! You deserve a HUGE medal!!!!!

It's so funny - there are about 10 girls and 5 boys and the boys are sitting lined up on the couch and chairs against the wall, while the girls have yet to sit down anywhere! LOL! It is soooo cute! They just finished eating pizza and are getting ready to play games. I'm actually home now - everything was under control and my daughter and her hubby were doing fine. I did bring the puppy home with me as she had to stay locked up with all the kids - so she was happy to escape with me and Gary is happy that I am back home. My mom is over here at my house too since most of the den furniture is now in her bedroom. I'll take her and Della (the puppy) back at 10:00 when the party is over.

I think you probably enjoyed it...am I right??? I don't think there is anything much louder than a group of 13 year olds, unless it would be a low flying jet...LOL.

She had such a great time - it was her first party of this type. She had only had large sleepovers for her parties in the past - or had them at a game place. She was just beaming last night and she said over and over how much fun she had!

How cute Gayle! That is such an adorable , noisy, age! I'm glad she enjoyed her birthday. It sounds like a success.

When Jessie had her first boy/girl party, I had it at a local bowling alley. It was so much easier than having them in the house. She wore a pink feather boa scarf!
She was so cute!

My granchildrens' birthdays are all in the summer, so they have pool parties. The parents can stay also.

You are one brave Grandma! I am so glad she was happy.

That's beyond bravery and dedication!

We went to Baylor's 5th birthday party on Saturday, found a safe corner and hung out with the other g-parents!

OMG!!! It was absolutely at Maple Lanes!!! Where else would you go bowling in our neighborhood? They were still there when I moved.

I love that you did your kids' parties there too. We went to McDonalds too - I don't remember which one. Mostly, when she was younger, we had them at home because Jessie's birthday is in February, and the snow was always an issue. I would get a clown or a magician, order a pizza, and that was that.
