Amazing Balloon Artist for your next Event!
Ok...so I get excited about silly things - I was at a party on Saturday and was utterly amazed by O'Ryan's talents. I have seen balloon artists before. They can make a sword, flower or hat. The kids play with the balloon for 2 seconds and then are on to something else. O'Ryan was making characters and objects out of balloons that honestly, a) I have no clue how he even learned to do it and b) that were phenomenal. Minnie Mouse, Elmo, Cookie Monster, a Mermaid, Puppy Dog and Horse were some of the things I saw. He is only $80 a hour and in the 2 hour span that he was at the party, got to every single child that was there! You can contact him at 818-992-6293 or email him at oryandeltoro at hotmail.com. Tell him you got the info from Jenslist!
Here is a photo of Thomas the Train and a Dinosaur that he made for the kids. The picture does not do them justice as to how cute they were. 

Here is his photo album too:http://s182.photobucket.com/albums/x209/ORyanDelToro/

Baby Photography Day
This is a fun day and a great way to get professional pictures of your kids for as little as $50 when you book time with other moms on the same day. On Saturday January 12th, Bloomfield Photography is going to offer low cost baby and child photography to parents in the greater Los Angeles area on a group sign-up basis (subject to cancellation for low participation).    The cost is $50 per 30 minute session, per child.    This price includes the sitting fee, a choice of indoor or outdoor photography, and each participant will receive all of the digital prints mailed to them on a CD after the session.   The CD is a great opportunity that many photographers do not offer.  This inclusion allows parents to choose from well over 100 pictures when ordering through Bloomfield, as well as the ability to edit and print pictures on their own. The event is going to be held in Van Nuys at the home of a Nurture & Nanny community member, Colleen Zwicker.   Appointments are available on a "first come, first serve" basis between the hours of 9am and 5pm. Please call Karen at Bloomfield Photography to book your appointment time (310)410-8011.
