Our 2011 Holiday Party included pizza, drinks, ice cream and sweets. The party life saver for the kids included a Moon Jump donated by one of our parents. The kids were more interested in the Moon Jumper then the food. The evening ended up with alot of sweaty smiling kids.
If your interested in a VERY AFFORDABLE rental of a Moon Jumper, Tables & Chairs, Tents etc. email Ana at onestoppartyrental@yahoo.com.
Alot of my oldest pictures were damaged when my basement flooded. These are some of the survivors. If any of my old students have anything you would like to send me please do! The memories live on.
Also notice the picture with no sparring equipment and NO I didn't get disqualified . . . this time.
