I must preface this by saying that the actually party for my son wasn’t a nightmare. It was the cleanup that was quite the disaster in my eyes.

We had ten children over to our home in Sunrise for my 7 years old son’s birthday party. The plan was to have it outside in the backyard however; it was just my luck that we had thunder and lightning storms all day. There was no way that I could cancel his party. It would have devastated him. This was his first “big boy” party with all of his little friends.

Of course, we had to have all of the kids in the house. My husband moved my dining table into the garage. It’s teak and I certainly didn’t want anything to happen to it. We brought the outdoor tables in the house so the kids would have a place to do the crafts and eat their cake and ice cream.
