No big issue here, but I did get a bit annoyed today. The twins were invited to a friends birthday and we went out yesterday and bought a couple of decent gifts and planned for a couple of hours there. The party was to have started at 2:00 and after looking for and finding the place we arrived at 2:30, but were still one of the first to arrive. We put the gifts with the rest, the squirts went off to play with the other kids and I sat and got acquainted with some of the other family members and promptly discovered that the cake wouldn't even be arriving until 5:00! By the time presents were opened and we got out of there it was 7:00 PM and we had lost our whole afternoon to this party.
Minor annoyance #2 was that there were no diet drinks at all. Coke, Root Beer, etc, but nothing without sugar except for bottled water. When I slipped out, I stopped and picked up some diet Cokes...
Mind you, they were nice people, the food was incredible, and it was a gorgeous day, but I really would have either loved to know that my whole day was going to be lost on this or at least had some kind of out for it. As it was, I really was kind of bored and had to slip home about halfway through (B.C. - before cake and such..) to let the dogs out to relieve themselves.
How long should a birthday party last?
