Our weekend ended on a high note!


This morning I woke up and (as always) toddled straight over to the computer. Life as a faerie is centered around answering hundreds of emails and phone calls, and I can't even let a night go by without the inbox filling up. Typically, when I sit down to answer emails, I am thinking they will be more of the same...inquiries, follow up conversations, shipping confirmations (you'd be surprised at all the crazy things we order through the mail each week! Our post lady loves delivering our packages *laugh*)...but this morning was different! I received the most lovely praise from a grown-up on Yelp.com. She spent so much time in writing such a lovely review...it actually made me cry. Thank you so much Palo Alto mama!

Yelp likes to delete postings after awhile, so I'll list it here for you.

The smartest thing I've done for a birthday party was to hire Fae!

This company and their characters are unlike any other and the children were completely captivated for 90 minutes!!! On a scale of 1 to 10, the children at my daughter's party (and the parents) gave her a 11.

Here's what different about happily ever laughter:
1) The quality of the character/acting/entertainment. These are NOT your
hokie disney types, but more like magical creatures that come to life . Centaur, mermaids, fairies and more! Hard to describe so I suggest watching the videos on her web site to get a better idea.

2) YOU get to pick age appropriate
activies and customize with an easy to price/select web site. All of it can be done on-line. What you see on the web site is what you get. So hassle free and worry free. I couldn't do this with the other folks popular around here. Their web site was not designed for this.

3) Here's my favorite part, this company was at least $100 less than the cost of other bay area children's entertainers. I checked daffy you know who and so and so
barry you know what and joe smith the musician (I've attended his performances and we were all so uninterested).

4) She's
stunningingly beautiful in the mermaid costume, all of it handmade! Our crowd ranged from 0-3 mostly with a few in the 6-8 range and they all sat still for an hour!

What she's not
1) The other 3 well known party entertainers in the
Palo Alto are older men that I know my group of young girls would not be comfortable around. Personally, I found them awkward and my husband found them to be too old and sorry to use this word but too creepy for our crowd.

2) Nickle and dime, charge you for extras. Our agreement was for 3 activities and when there was extra time, Fae threw in a 4
th activity, for FREE.
