Congrats, LeiKaina! Good to have you back. Gee, wonder what an appropriate spot to read your birth story would be, should you post it!?

Welcome to your little guy. Eager to hear his stats, etc.!

Mahalo!

I actually feel weird taking up a thread with all that info. I can pm you a few pictures and his stats like I did Auntie though and of course anyone else who would like to see I would pm it to.

The first birthday thing here in Hawaii can get kind of ridiculous.

Thanks for Glen for creating a new thread to tackle the issue of extravagant birthday parties.

Any other suggestions for a restaurant or event venue for about 120 people, and probably more than a few kids?

Kalihiboy and LeiKaina, I hope you'll share some of the options you consider for your party, and ultimately, what you decide to do! Either way, I'm sure they'll be wonderful events.

Haha Auntie, he's just really fat! Quite the chunker.

And I can't wait to see your new grand-daughter myself! August will be here soon.

Victoria Inn in Kaimuki was a finalist for my first son's birthday party, today I decided to take a run (I literally walk or run all over this island) from Kalihi to Kaimuki and met with either the owner or longtime manager, Nancy. She has a treasure trove book of stories of Kaimuki, she said Victoria Inn is now 33 years old. Not too many establishments have the large size of that place, it is 3 stories tall so she took me on a tour of the place and we're thinking of that place now as a possibility once again. She said with the Wisteria demolished, nearby Columbia Inn not doing parties anymore? and Flamingo (on Kapiolani) doesnt have the size for a large party she has one of the few old places to accommodate such large parties. Tonight they were having a party on the 3rd floor and I honestly could not hear a thing and I was on the second floor, the walls must be very thick there, eh?

if you don't mind having it on a sunday... then spaghetti factory is normally closed on sundays & will host private birthday parties on that day... went to a first birthday there & they had balloon people & a clown...I believe their prices are reasonable.. also upstairs at gyotaku on king is nice.. went there too..they have a large party room...
