In two weeks we’ll be celebrating my boys’ birthday. Parties nowadays cost a lot of money.

First you need a theme, then a location, then food, entertainment and party favors. It’s not like old times, when all that was needed for a good party was a cake, candles and hats.

Anyways, unlike previous years, this time I’ve decided to be like my nice christian co-worker and go all out. It’s my kid’s party, and to show the love I have for them, I can’t think about money:

We picked a cool theme for their birthday: Blue. Everything will be in different blue tones.
The party will be at a cool location that kids love with plenty of option for entertainment: the public park.
But we wanted to splurge and give the kids plenty of entertainment, so we’ll also bring our sofa cushions so the kids can jump on them.
We thought about hiring catering for the food, but thought we would save the money on the service and spend it on the food: so we’ll have plenty of water bottles and peanut and butter sandwiches to go around.
And as party favors, we’ll be giving old Forbes magazines so the kids can learn how to read and maybe learn about the economy a little bit. Unfortunately, we’ll only be able to give it to 6 kids, since I threw the older magazines out.

As you can see, this should be an awesome party!
