one more time: PARKS

im way behind on reserving a park for mady's 2nd bday.

most parks ive called said they are already booked.

please recommend parks in the area of hia gdns, miami lakes, and miramar so i can call and see them this week.

*leanna: i went to memorial miramar last week - the birds freaked me out .... what are your thoughts on that?

*mimi: i have ruben dario park in the back of my mind but its so far for most of my fam.

*some parks in miami lakes only have availability for 60 ppl and i have 77 on my list, what do you all think of actually reserving and expecting less ppl to show up? do or dont?

    does the 77 include little kids and babies?  or kids under 2?  if so, i wouldn't count them! lol  Or, at the very least, count 2 of them as 1 person :)  and yeah, some people might show up late, some might leave early, so you might have an average of 60 all around.  (btw, are they really sticklers on that and will check up on you?  can you get away with an extra 15 people w/out them noticing?)

    I hadn't really noticed the birds any of the times I was there so I'm not too worried I guess.  My main thing was that i wanted a place close to my house and that was it :) 

    I'm sure there's some nice parks in Miami Lakes.

    If I were you I would book the park in Miami Lakes. What's another 17 people, are they going to be head counting everyone!? I know this is not in your radiar of locations, but there are a couple of park in the City of Doral, (www.cityofdoral.com) Their prices are pretty cheap, the most expensive one ($200) you really don't need a bounce house since there is a park literally a couple of steps from the shelter. They also have a soccer, baseball, football field and a bike path. We are planning Alejandro's FIRST birthday party too and this park was/ is on the top of our list. GOOD LUCK!

    I invited 100 people (children and adults) to Nadia's party. The pavillion said max was 60- but I figured it didn't really matter since people wouldn't be sitting all at the same time and would probably be wandering around with their kids.

    I don't really know how many people I finally had- but I don't think the max really matters. I mean- it wouldn't be a problem evacuating if there was fire or something. LOL!!!

    And if you are talking about the miami lakes park where I had Nadia's party- a guy came by and took out the trash twice but that was it. No head count. I really don't think it matters honestly or that the guy cares.
