I have loved planning all 4 of Hunter's birthday parties. I never get stressed out about them like I do usual huge undertakings. I feel like we do rather "large" birthdays, obviously I've seen much bigger, but normally smaller. I see NOTHING wrong with small birthday parties, don't misunderstand me. They're just not for me. This year is the first year that we actually did a "kid only" birthday (and by this I mean the parents were free to drop off their kids if they chose to).
I've had the HARDEST time finding a place to have Graysen's first birthday. Hunter's have all been easy because on August 5th it's generally warm! November 28th is another story! Not only is it only the day after Thanksgiving this year, it's cold, cold, cold. No outside parties for her. My house is not big enough to even fit our two families, let alone all of our friends...so that leaves me "party placeless". After lots of stress (and actually after this post was even started), I've secured the Rolla Community Hall for her party! Yippy! It will be big enough, we can decorate, and it has a kitchen area to prepare the food! Perfect! Now I'm getting excited!
I know it won't be so stressful when she gets a little older, we can do tea parties at our house, roller skating, Discovery Zone, Chuck E. Cheese, etc. But for now - it's a challenge!
Anyone else have a winter birthday? What did you do for your parties growing up?

I have rented a room at the Center for Logan's birthdays. It is not that expensive and they have soft play equipment for the younger crowd. Plus no clean up for you at your house. How much was the Community Hall to rent?
