I love great sources for stuff

Ok, so one more short one today, but who knew that Oriental Trading had Craft Accessories – again, I think I read this on Craftster, but I’m a big FAN of oriental trading…they have great cheap stuff for kids parties and all sorts of other events. I think I might order the crowns for Missy C’s princess birthday party.

Speaking of which, she insisted today that she have a bounce house for her birthday, now unfortunately there’s a sad side to this. Her birthday will forever be in November and her brother’s is in May…sunny, warm May.

We have some close friends who have a bounce house rental business and so both of the last two of Matey Moo’s birthdays we’ve gotten a bounce house.

How do you explain to a soon to be 4 year old that it’s TOO cold to have a bounce house in November? She was almost in tears today…poor thing. So, I asked and my friend said there’s a “chance” if the weather is ok. I’m not sure if it’s fair or not to give her a glimmer of hope. Wish me luck and wish for lovely weather on Nov. 13! 🙂
