Comments from our friends...
Dear Carey Ann, I would like to thank you so much for the
wonderful birthday surprise for Tamia. It was much better than going to
chuckie cheese or jungle java. It was great to have you come to her school.
The best part about that was I didn't have to worry about hurting anyone's
feeling by not inviting them to an outside party or the clean up. Tamia's
teacher said everyone was pretending like they were Carey Ann the clown and
painting faces. Again, thank you and I will recommend a birthday party at a
school with you anytime.
Koreen and Tamia
"My 3 year old son, Jeremy, was at the "Safety Concert" at Southshore Hospital today. Jeremy loved it as we all did. This evening he told me, "Back off, Stranger", so I guess he was really listening to what you both were saying, which makes me feel really good. " Georgia W. "Hello! My wife and daughter and I caught one of your shows at the Calhoun County Fair and may I say It was wonderful! You really made this year's visit the best one yet. My daughter was picked to do a part in your show and I though my sides would split from laughing so hard! Thank you for posting her picture and for a great show!" The Wrights - Tommy, Maryellen & Tara "I caught your act at the Calhoun County Fair today...and it was GREAT! The kids really enjoyed it! Thanks!" Andrea Frenette "You are truly the best clown I ever have seen - God has really blessed you with a happy soul! Continue the good work!" Mrs. Walker Huntington Kindergarten really enjoyed the wonderful program you treated us with before school ended. Thank you so much...you're great!!! Sincerely, Mrs. Cohoon and the Huntington Little Ones" "Carey Ann was a success at our daughter's 1st birthday party. Everyone enjoyed the performance by Carey Ann and the face painting by Bubble D. Boo. Genesis and I thank you!" "The website is very informative and easy to navigate through. But I wanted to especially thank you for the wonderful entertainment you provided at my son's 1st Birthday Party. Everyone had a great time and my son loved it" Little "G" and mom "This is the 2nd party that Carey Ann has done for me. I would like to take this time to thank her and say how good the party was and the face painting was cool, too. Thank you for doing a great job."
