I don't include Chips and stuff, because we are doing a snack buffet and a candy/sweets buffet. Those are a different post ;)

Location, Location, Location!

Finding a location is step one. But lucky for me, I know the perfect place.

-Beach
-Park
-Nature
-Fishing
-Cheap!


That equals Kiptopeke State Park.

Post $53 for the whole day. Everyone will have to pay for parking thou, $3 a car. But still, we can fish, go to the beach, cook on the grill. Plus the bathrooms are about 50 feet away.

Perfect.

My Sister.

My sister will be 18 on April, 15th 2011. She is an amazing girl! She is an honor student, captain of her robotics team, and just a great girl. So we have decided to throw her a sweet 18. And in this blog I am going to keep track of the process :)
