Last weekend, Connor was invited to go to a classmates bowling & pizza birthday party. It was a nice little card with an RSVP and the mom had written the details. The trouble is we only saw the invitation in his backpack on Monday, and the party was already on Saturday. Dang. He likes bowling & pizza.
This week, there was a little note to Connor from a little girl in his class. She'd folded a piece of paper in half and written an invitation to come to her skating party "this Saturday" from 1:00 to 3:00. There was no RSVP, and no adult influence on the paper at all. I'm not sure whether there really *is* a party, or if it is just wishful thinking on the girl's part.
In any case, Lee got his skates out from under the house (hopefully there aren't any spider nests in there) and he took Connor to the skating rink with a little Dollar Tree gift for the girl (in case she's actually there). They are still gone at 2:00, so they are at least enjoying skating regardless of a party or not.
I really should come up with an idea for Connor's birthday. It would be fun to have his classmates come to a party for him... He's starting to get this whole idea of parties & such now.
Art mystery possibly solved?

What about renting a bounce house or slide? I bet Connor would love it and so would the other kids! We did that for Coles party last year. You can usually look them up and they deliver it to you and take it away. The good thing is that they usually bring it 2 hrs or so before the party and about 2 hours after, so Connor would get extra time alone in there! You should check it out!
Um, Lee checked that out. Looks like the closest place that rents those is about 2 hours away. They charge $.20 a mile so that would be about $300 just for the transport, not even the actual rental.
So... good idea, but it won't work (at least this year).
