Just a side personal note with a bit of humor thrown in - or horror depending on how you look at it.

My daughter will be turning 16 the first part of October. She will be having her first boy/girl party and already she is making plans. I told her I would make her a very beautiful cake and she could only give me three of her favorite colors to work with, the rest would be my surprise for her. Turquoises, white and black. I ask her how many people she is thinking of asking and to keep in mind that the weather at that time of year could be gorgeous or we might have to have it in the basement. In the innocents of a 15 year old she adds all from her theater class, all from the drama play not part of theater, then all her other friends.

75-100 teenagers!!!!!! Hello!! Do we have a mansion instead of a small ranch house?? I then tell her to whittle that number down to 50 at the most. You would have thought I told her she could only have 10, it was the funniest thing I have ever seen. 100 teenagers in my house, yeah right!!
