Fucking Kids Birthday Parties!!!!

My first born turned 5 on Thursday. We had a really nice afternoon with her and close family and friends.
We went to a local play centre and all in cost maybe $60.

A few months ago my wife started planning her 'party'.. This isn't the party for her close family and friends though. This is a party open to all, pretty much everyone in her school is invited.
We are having Frozen characters, snow, balloon sculpting, a frozen cake and even now, the day before she is trying to get hold of someone she knows that can create arches out of balloons..

On top of all this we have had to hire the hall and we will need to make all the sandwiches etc. The party is scheduled to last just 2 hours..

This 2 hour party is likely to cost in excess of $500.

Unfortunately I am paying for it all..

Oh yes and I was also forced into buying a Barbie house. Cost.. $240

This 5 year olds birthday is costing like $1000. I could have a really nice holiday with that money..

The joys of fatherhood and marriage huh?
