Where? A our place
Time/Duration? Lunchtime BBQ and then if anyone was still there at tea time we just kicked on LOL
How many guests? Around 20 adults, and however many kids they had at the time
Did you combine family with friends or do seperate things? just did it all together, but if their actual birthday was a different day to their party then family usually came over that day for gifts and cake etc but no party.
What worked? everything we've just always done it that way and we often have BBQ's like that only with not as many people. It really is more about us because they have no idea what is going on LOL so it was just like a regular BBQ we'd have only with a birthday cake.
