I love Bar Mitzvahs (and Bat Mitzvahs, of course). The kids bring SO MUCH ENERGY to the event that it is impossible to do anything but have fun.
This party was in Matthew's house, well, I meant his parents' house. They have a huge backyard that they turned into the nicest party space. There was a big tent that was setup to fit all the tables and enough room for a big dance floor. There were also some caterers that had food stations around. Kosher food stations, that is :)
Everyone was having a great time. From the youngest kid to the oldest grandfather. Mazel tov, young man!
