Dear Jill,
I cannot tell you how much my friends and I enjoyed my Squeals on Wheels party! I had honestly been planning this party since last January and I was not disappointed. Diana and Tyler did a wonderful job from start to finish and, of course, the animals were stellar. I loved being able to hold and pet each of them and see them run around inside the pen. It was also really nice to watch my friends become entranced by the animals and enjoy
themselves in a way that I'm sure most of us had not been able to since we were kids. Speaking of kids, we did have three actual children at the party and they, too, thoroughly enjoyed it.
While I have no problem throwing a petting zoo party for myself even though I am in my thirties, I know it is a bit more unusual for an adult. The novelty and amusement factor definitely attracted my friends to this event, though. One of them said to me partway through, "I really didn't know what to make of this idea when I first heard about it, but this is *awesome!!" *This is the same friend in one of the attached photos who is bonding with Pom Pom. Pom Pom enjoyed a few laps and pets, but he chose Jon as his special friend.
He absolutely rested his head on Jon's shoulder and I SWEAR he is smiling in this photo!
Thank you for all of it. In addition to the photo of Jon and Pom Pom, attached are two of me with Pippa and Oreo. I could have hugged them all day long! Extra thanks, too, for the extra pig. I was excited especially for the pig, but TWO! It about near put me over the edge.
Please give everyone - animal and human - who worked my party my wholehearted appreciation and thanks.
