Ridiculous first birthday party

[Deleted]

I hate ballrooms without windows. HATE.

Just take the kid to the effin' park. You know, somewhere they'd actually have fun.

That is seriously one pretty little girl.

IDGAF what people do for birthday parties.

Spend $20 or spend $20,000 - I. Do. Not. Give. A. Fuck.

Why do people create windowless rooms?  It's awful.  

Rooms need views.

No, I think it's just Anya (the curtain is messing it up).

And Anya, is NOT a weird name. It's just not American.

I am not bothered by the grand event so much as how tacky the room is. Ugh curtain walls. Ugh colour spot lighting.
I'm embarrassed for their taste.

LOL. I can't say I'm offended. (And maybe flameful? But I like color spot lighting when done correctly!)

I think I've seen way tackier things on GBCN/IRL though. 

If you think THAT'S bad, you would die at some of the weddings I've gone to in my H's home town.

I wonder if they made the guests dress up.

1st birthdays are a pretty big deal in DHs culture. Not so much subsequent ones (up until 16 etc). I've been to a few 1st birthday parties of similar extravagance.

It's a big party with dancing etc. It's pretty fun.

ok. that makes sense! It looked like there was a ' in between the y and a, so Any'a

[sonrisa]

lol.

See, this is exactly why I say leave the kid with a sitter on her first birthday and celebrate without her. That party would be so much better without a baby.

Of course Anya is not weird. If it were Any'a - well, show me some history on that extra apostrophe and I'll give you a pass.
