The Contingency Plan

Despite initial plans of a low key picnic for Hugo's birthday, I've been working on an alternate. One that involves a disco ball, dance music and three hours of crazy fun.

I can't claim the idea to myself as I fell in love with this around six months ago and have been scheming a way I can either pull it off here or tailor it for a client.

There's a perfect little hall within stone's throw of our house so I've been stalking the contacts listed online (and the actual hall) to see if I can hire it. It's such a convenient location, I don't think I want to go through with it unless I can have the hall. It will literally take a minute to talk to.

In addition to the dancing, snacks and drinks, I also want a chill out area with bean bags, matts, etc.

We took Wolf to a wedding a few months ago and he experienced his first dance floor. Oh how he loved it! The lights, the music, the people, he honestly tired Luc and I out. I can't wait!!

Wow, we can barely take Branch and Blossom to a restaurant! I wanna see pictures from the Disco Birthday!

ooohhh I wish we could be there, sounds great.

Junebee: I understand, we rarely take Wolfy to a restaurant/cafe/enclosed space where you're suppose to behave as he's usually a nightmare. I can only imagine the effort required for twins...

If we manage to pull off the party I'll make sure I'll take LOTS of pictures.

Lisa: I wish you could be here too!!

No, I meant about taking Hugo to the wedding. My kids would be all over the place and into everything - other people's belongings, under the table, eating other people's food, etc.

Ha! You're so right. Hugo was doing the same thing, but thankfully Luc and I had Mum, Natasha, Harry, and other family friends there to take turns in entertaining him....

That sound like so much fun.

We had imrpomtu belly dancing at the end of the BOy's first birthday, after the grownups had had a few and the boy went to bed. NOt quite the same.
