Should I have a party or not?!
Should I have a party or not?
We've had a halloween party the past 2 yrs. 2004 everyone got drunk, danced and the kids felt left out (we forgot to do the games). 2005 it ended up being more of a kid party. This year, my friend is having her 40th bday on 10/28 so i was thinking of not having a party. Last year didn't seem that great. Do you think people will still come & give it another chance? Also, would it be ok to have it the week prior to actual halloween?
Answers:
Party on honey!!!! The world is going to hell real quick, so live it up!!!! perhaps you could hire a party planner, they aren't that expensive, or find one that is just starting out. Anyway, PARTY!!!
It's somebody else's turn to clean up the mess the day after. hit up your friends who attended your parties in the past. Ask them if they know of any good parties.
Which one is more important, your kid
Yes party before is fine that way totally suprised
Nah, I would skip it this year, especially since there is another party close to the date. Any who wants to dress up for a Halloween party way far in advance? Save it for next year, and send out invites early. Maybe have a kids party earlier in the day and then an adult costume party at night! :)
yes yes yes yes yes yes yes PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!
Why not have two parties - one for the adults a week before, and one for the kiddies at Halloween?
yeah i think maybe you should pitch inand have it somewhere else -OR- you could get a few friends and put in some ideas and have a duel host job. Keep the kids involved by haveing the oldest kid try for one no older than 11 to suppervise and maybe let them create their one "party" that is away from yours. THat way they feel like they are doing somthing important and hey if they dont have any fun they can blame themselves? haha. GOOD LUCK!
throw that crazy party..better for all of those people to get drunk and hav fun telling the kids bout vietnam
throw a party and don't forget to include the kids, have a couple of parents chaperone
If your friend's 40th birthday party is close to Halloween don't steal his/her thunder. Maybe just do a little kids party on that day.
Have the party - any reason to celebrate will work! I like the idea of having it a week before Halloween - that way you can have fun and on Halloween your kids can have fun. Satisfies everyone. Woo-hoo!
Hmmm....why don't you collaborate with some friends and see what ideas that they have? You could have a surprise 40th bday party...and YES you can have the party the week before Halloween.
