Our second party of the weekend was today at Cindy's house in Palos Verdes. It is a hoity-toity area which consists of a 'rural' country area with horse property and the ocean area with gorgeous views depending on which direction you're facing. I love Cindy's house although it is very large, the ocean view is to die for. She won't have to worry about other homes in front although there is that off chance that a very strong earthquake could send the house into the ocean.
Compared to yesterday's party, this one was fairly lame. The kids don't care but this water slide was much smaller than the one from yesterday. Cindy said the guy didn't ask how large her yard is or maybe he only had one size. This one would have fit in our yard easily. Oh well, Tyler jumped right in but there were about 12 kids his age fighting over the slide. After a while it got ugly when a kid sitting at the top of the stairs placed his feet on Tyler's chest as he climbed up and shoved him down the stairs. OMG....I was on the balcony at the time so I witnessed the whole thing so I yelled down to Hector to get on this kid. Tyler started screaming & crying and I ripped into that kid who had some nerve to appear nonchalant about the whole incident. If Tyler had done that to some other kid I would have reacted the same because I want my child to have actual manners and common sense. That's a major reason why Hector and I chose Torrance to live instead of PV because those kids are major brats who have no sense of responsibility. Those boys were rude to Tyler because they didn't know him. I know a lot of their behavior is normal boy rowdiness but I can see how they'll turn out later if they don't have boundaries. Anyway, Tyler was fine and luckily no other kids were at the bottom of the stairs when he fell otherwise there would be a lot more kids crying. This party just reconfirmed our right decision to live where we do!

Hector pointed out the difference between the 2 parties. The 1st one was geared equally to adults and children. It had lots of food, drinks (regular and alcoholic), plenty of entertainment for the kids and an area for the adults to hang out and relax. The 2nd party was mostly for the kids since it appeared that most of kids were dropped off by their parents. So the kids were a bit rowdy with little adult supervision...the kids were operating the sno-cone machine with the red syrup all over the table and food. Yikes, what a mess. Oh well, the kids had fun at both parties so that's all that matters.
