Dylan's party was yesterday.
All of those things happened to us.
I'm glad Dylan had a great time
but here is what I have learned:
Money can buy you a lot of things, but it can't buy you class.

Ugh.....
At least Dylan seemed unfazed by it, and you're right...money can't buy you class!
ohhhhhhhhh.. Honey.. I'm so sorry.. I tell you.. sometimes.. people.. are just........ ugh.. People!!!!!! I would have stayed and enjoyed a piece of cake too!!!!!!!
People are so freaking rude!! It never ceases to amaze me how people behave. Didn't their parents teach them any manners at all?!?! And what does this say about what they are teaching their children? IDIOTS! I'm sooooo sorry this happened to Dylan and YOU! But, I'm glad he had a good time! HAPPY BIRTHDAY DYLAN!!!!
oh people like that make me so angry. They have no respect for others and are teaching their children to have none. Can you tell this is a soapbox issue for me?
Some people are just flat out rude. I'm sorry to hear that happened, but I am glad that Dylan still had a good time.
Exactly what cajunquilter said - they're certainly not setting a good example by their actions. Especially in the case of driving away - what's up with that???
Glad Dylan had a good birthday despite the flakiness.
Geez.
Happy Birthday to your son. Sorry to hear about all of that. Pretty stinky.
Tiny-minded people think that nobody else matters in the world except for them. And you are SO right about money and class...
Wow, and the worst part is that these parents are setting the examples for their kids! yikes!
And this is why our children's bday parties are with family only. I don't want to deal w/crap like that. Luckily my family is large enough to make up a hellified party.
Poor Dylan.
Poor Dylan. Kids and parents are so mean at times. I'm glad he had fun anyway.
Give him a another piece of birthday cake from me.
O.M.G I cannot believe that someone wouldn't R.S.V.P! I can't wait to hear this one. Don't worry it happens everywhere, but it sure does suck! Hang in there girl, and tell Dylan that I said Happy Birthday!
