Best boys party ever?

Like seriously, why do we overthink birthday parties? I mean, I love pinning...ALL. the. things, decorating, and the planning. What I don't like? Actually having to host it, and the cost and in the end I think, "Wow. Did I really need to prep 30 party favors for only 10 kids to show up?" LOL. Please tell me I'm not alone in that? Sooo, I decided this year I would go basic for my son's 10th birthday.

You know boys (and most kids in general), they love dirt, they love water, and most of all? They love play guns. I'll be honest. These days, allowing your kids to play with guns can be a touchy subject, so I decided to set a few ground rules before planning the event..The biggest?--Make sure your gun does not look like a real gun. No masks, and have fun.--

Yes, I do plan to provide Nerf guns, but in case I don't have enough, I'm inviting attendees to bring their own. So, where to start with the planning? I'm making reservations at our local city park.There's public restrooms, so no worrying about kids coming in and out all wet; there's an outdoor grill so we can plan easy food like hotdogs, sausages, and chips, or keep it even more simple and just order everyone's fave- pizza. I seriously think the $25 reservation fee is going to be the best deal ever! Now to pray it doesn't rain! ...although that would totally make it more fun, as long as it's not thundering and pouring, right?

Here's some deals I found:

Nerf MicroShot N-Strike Elite Strongarm

Gatorade Thirst Quencher, Fruit Punch and Cool Blue Variety Pack, 12 Ounce (Pack of 24).

eye protection

dart refills

I got lucky and scored some Nerf themed party decor at H-E-B that was marked down for around $0.50 each! If you're not so lucky to find a deal like that---I also found coordinating decor like team clap bracelets, under eye team stickers, and a Nerf Target Pinata at my local Wal-Mart

Free Museum Admission for EBT and WIC Recipients

So I know anytime someone mentions EBT, some folks can get their panties in a bunch. But let's be real. People work, people have families, and sometimes that job doesn't cover all the bills and it often comes to a point where you have to choose to pay Bills or Food. And if you're having to choose between those 2 big questions, there's no doubt that a fun, educational family trip to the museum is freely scheduled on your agenda. (Insert sarcasm) :p If you happen to find yourself asking these questions, you may qualify for assistance. Please contact by phone or this link: 2-1-1 to see what benefits you and/or your family may be eligible for. Did you know that there are several places that actually allow you free, or reduced, admission when you show your card and/or proof of eligibility throughout the U.S.A. through Museums for All , a national initiative that encourages families to visit museums regularly and build lifelong museum habits. When going, I would
