[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a birthday party in our back garden this past fall, and just having the taco truck was $1,000, never mind the decorations, the ice cream truck, party favors, or the animal entertainment. [/quote] A taco truck, ice cream truck, and “animal entertainment” all for one backyard party? That is over the top. You could just order pizza or grill burgers and hot dogs like a normal person? Or you know, scoop ice cream yourself? [/quote] Why should DH and I put in all that work, when we can pay others to do it (supporting small, local businesses at that) so that we're free to enjoy the party? To us, that's money well spent. It's like saying why hire a cleaning service when you could clean yourself. Well sure I could, but I'd rather spend time with my kids doing fun things.[/quote]
