Last year my ds's 6th birthday party was planned for Aug. 27th - two days before Katrina hit (we live about 60 miles from where it first hit land). So, needless to say, everyone was evacuating. This year his party is planned for Labor Day weekend and I want to do something funny on his invitations like: Let's try it again! or It's the second anniversary of Ds's 6th birthday! But I'm not crazy about either of those. Anybody have any ideas?

How about something about Katrina not being invited this year? Hope he has a fun birthday!

Last year Katrina huffed & puffed and blew us away.
This year we intend to stay.
Please help us celebrate ds's 6 & 7th birthday
Twice the celebration for Katrina's fury
....

I love what Yvonne wrote except without the last line. I think the 3 lines are perfect. Then put the event information under that.
