OCTOBER...how did that happen?

We have been really bad and neglected the Blog and Website over the past few months and now is the time to change that. Apologies to those of you who may have checked in here to get an update; we just don’t know where the time has gone. Not wanting to bore you senseless writing loads, we are going to try to summarise what we have been up to over the last few months and hopefully still make it sound fun and interesting. Now, what has happened since May? The simple answer…loads!

• We had the pleasure of entertaining SWISH alongside our good friend Robert Farrell as they raised funds for the village of Southery in Norfolk and have been asked back again next year so we must have done something right!

The "locals" at the SWISH Ball

• Dan has attended quite a few balloon “Care & Share Days” and learnt lots of new tricks of the balloon twisting trade and is now a member of The Balloon Artists Guild along with lots of other very talented twisters.

Inspired by Ken Stillman, Dan has turned his hand to Super Heroes

• We were honoured to be involved in a 2-day fundraising event in July for Help for Heroes and, together with a fantastic team of volunteers; we helped to raise £2582.29! And we are doing it all again next year for Scotty’s Little Soldiers and hope to raise double that!

• We have entertained at numerous schools since the last post and saw many of the children heading into their last few days at Primary School; KJ never does manage not to cry when they say their goodbyes!

• We have lost count of the number of Krazy Kidz Parties we have done but we have enjoyed every single one of them. Seeing the smiles on the faces of the children as they go home is always a huge buzz for us and we are working behind the scenes to add lots of new packages for 2012. Check out this fantastic video made by VideoUs at one of our recent parties...this makes us smile every time we watch it; hope it does you too! 

• We have seen lots of couples get married over the last few months too and being a part of their special days is something that we will continue to cherish and be very proud of for a long time to come. We wish them all the very best for the future as they continue on to the next chapter of their lives.

• KJ held another “Jam” in August and we had a house full of amazingly talented painters; and we mean a house full and the food…well, that was simply delicious with a very special cake made for KJ’s birthday which was a few days before the Jam. We had visitors from all over and it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and meet lots of new ones too!

The special cake made by Jayne from JC's Faces...it was truly scrumptious! 

• We have had some fantastic corporate bookings throughout the “silly season” with some being very new to us this year. We both received fantastic feedback on our individual services and met some great new contacts. We had the pleasure of working alongside our good friend Liz from Lizzy B’s Face Painting at some of these events too which was definitely an added bonus when you saw the length of some of the queues!

• KJ has attended another face painting training course, this time at the London School of Face Painting with the renowned painter Bibi Freeman. Look out for some very special Halloween faces now J

• We have celebrated numerous birthdays, anniversaries and special occasions over the last few months and as always, continue to be thankful for so many bookings. We really do put 100% into everything we do.

• And last, but by no means least, we attended The BPM Show at Birmingham NEC recently. This was a chance for us to see the latest products on offer within the Mobile DJ industry so keep an eye out for some new lighting effects when you next see us out and about!

We really hope that you have had a great Summer and that the long nights drawing in are not making you too down. The colours at this time of year are a great inspiration to KJ’s painting, but we too would still like a little bit of sun now and again.

If you would like any information on any of the services that we offer, please get in touch…we are only too happy to help.

So until next time…keep the music playing ♪

KJ & Dan
