Summer get together/birthday party with some of my friends?

Question

i am turnng 15 on august 30th and i like to have a birthday party to get ome extra money for school clothes as well as get together with my friends. all of my friends want to get together at some point this summer we have agreed and i think my bday party would be the perfect place. we are very casual and last year i got nachos and cheese sauce and we had a taco bar. it was a hit. this year i think i want to get pizza hut pixxa cause its the best ever and what other foods do you think i should have? i am really good at decorating cupcakes and use all of the professional stuff so that isnt a problem for cake, and this will probably be a sleepover. any suggestions welcome! =]

Answer 1

There's lots you can do!  I wouldn't count on getting extra money from your party though, it should be about celebrating your birthday and having fun with your friends and not the gifts of money, you may end up disppointed.

For the party, the Pizza Hut pizzas sound great.  You can serve some salads and chips, etc, with them.

You can set up an ice cream bar.  Get chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream and some toppings.  Sprinkles, chocolate syrup, whipped cream, and marachino cherries and have everyone make their own sundaes.  You can get the plastic sundae glasses at the dollar store or the waffle cone bowls at the grocery store.

You can do outdoor games like relay races, potato sack races, three legged races, etc.

Set up a volleyball net and play volleyball and badmitten.

Waterballoon fights.

Get an inflatable kiddie pool and fill it with water, break into 2 teams and have a tug of war, the losing team ends up in the pool.

For the sleepover tell your friends to bring their blankets and pillows so they can lounge out and be comfortable.  You can also do movies, make-overs, manicures, pedicures, charades, truth or dare, trivia games, board games, twister, what if questions, would you rather questions, or just use the quiet down time to catch up with everyone before school starts.  

You can also get a pinata.  Go to the party store and find one you like and in the same aisle they have what's called pinata filler.  They're big bags of candy and they'll still be room for you to add your favorites.  If you do that, make sure to write the names of everyone on their bags so no one is arguing about whose bag is whose at the end of party.  

I hope some of these ideas help and that you have a great party and a very Happy Birthday!!
