Once again its party time at HoA....YAY!! (Maybe not YAY for our neighbours)
Joel and I organised a Alice in Wonderland themed birthday party which took forever to plan and execute but it was definitely worth it..so why did it take so long...lets see:
1) We turned the living room into a nightclub. The walls were all blocked off and blacked out then we installed a fog machine, LED lights and the biggest speakers I've ever seen.
2) We turned the dining room into the Mad Hatters room filled with awesome food
3) We turned the family room into a Queen of Hearts room with Alice in Wonderland playing on the flatscreen..but somehow that turned into people playing kinect during the night
4) We turned our entrance into a 'journey down the rabbit hole' theme
Let me walk you through the process =)

After all the intense preparation and work, it was good times all round. Everyone enjoyed the night with minimal disruptions..apparently you could hear the music from two blocks away, but luckily there were no noise complaints from the neighbors =)
