Hi M.,
I know this is kind of late but I remembered someone asking about bday parties. MSN is my home page and they had an article that I ran upon and thought that I would give you the link and share with you. It is about bday parties. You know I came really close to opening a home based business of planning bday parties for children, teens and adults. I may still do that but wanted to give you this link so you could take a look at all the birthday parties.

Hope this helps.
