Graduation Parties!

We've been booking alot of wonderful parties lately - especially for graduations and first communions! It's wonderful to see families marking milestones in their childrens lives and making memories last a lifetime! While we're doing alot of 5th graduations, I can honestly say that it's just as much fun bringing a huge waterslide out to New College or Sarasota Christians end of the year parties! I LOVE watching kids of all ages shake off some of the "end of the year" stress and really just have a great time!

Planning a graduation party is a bit different than a birthday, where you usually only have one person being celebrated! Find a way to celebrate all of the graduates while highlighting your own childs accomplishments. Perhaps a banner cheering everyone on, or a slide show with as many pictures of the graduating class as possible? A memory book or maybe a small gift for all the graduates? Your guests will appreciate you celebrating everyone and their wonderful accomplishment!

I loved an graduation annoucement I received last year for a friends child graduating high school. It had a nice picture of the grad - along with a bullet list of his most exciting accomplishments throughout this high school career. I was proud and impressed for him - and I hope he understood how proud his parents are of him. Just another opportunity to SHOW your child how much you love them!

There are so many reasons to celebrate our kids! You don't have to look very far!
