Disney World Mom Party

November 16, 2009

I got to throw a party in honor of moms for Disney World.  Mom Select Sent me a box full of goodys for the party including balloons, goody bags for the kids, information for moms and so much more.

I have to admit that the party was just okay, it’s hard to talk to Moms about a trip to Disney World, when the economy is so bad and a lot of us can’t afford it.

it was fun but a lot of my guests were very camera-shy.

The kids really loved it.
