Buddy (DS) has a summer birthday, and I also got tired of people not
letting me know if they're coming. Just seems like folks don't have
manners anymore. I didn't bother with RSVPs this year -- not even paper
invitations; just called each kid and asked their parents myself. We
got a great turn out.

I hope that's supposed to be "face paints"... ;-)
