Overheard at the house

Her: Mom, I really want a big birthday party, I am turning sixteen.
Me: Well, how big and what type of party?
Her: Big, with a dj and a big cake from a bakery.
Me: We are not having snoop dog and M&M to your party, we may need to have an alternate plan.
Her: Ok, what if we go the Caspian Café with the belly dancers.
Me: ok


So, We have just a few weeks to get our act together. I think we are leaning towards several events. One for “girls only” at a hotel with her friend and her mother (just the four of us for pampering). The belly dancer dinner and maybe a different gathering for friends.
