Yesterday was GAME DAY
and our friends Dan and
Nancy (Acorn Cottage) came
over .
In order to get ready for our
fun, I did an inventory of party
decorations and paper goods
saved from previous parties
and activities. I tried to use
as many things I already had.
Above you will see (top right
around the table) red dinner
plates, football napkins, red
cups, foam football cutouts,
confetti, football snack dishes,
white plastic forks, red silicone
cups and in the the middle are
football cutouts to hang up.
When I buy these type of items
I ALWAYS save anything that is
leftover--one never knows when
they will need it. This way I
hopefully don't have to buy anything
for the next party or event.
These are then stored in a spare
closet for the next use.
The items above are the only
things I bought. Out of all the
tablecovers that I have I did
not have a white one---go
figure. Total spent $3.00. :)
THE GAME---getting ready
for the appetizers.
THE PICKS---I have had this
chalkboard since I was a
little girl!
THE TABLE---before.
Here is a peek at the confetti.
THE TABLE---after it is
laden with round one food.
There was a mishap with
round two so no pics. Lost
a pizza in the oven! :(
THE WINNERS!
Next year, Dan--Nancy's husband
and I have vowed that we will be
THE WINNERS!!!!
Great fun was had by all.
~Keep on Dreaming~
Woohoo, it looks very festive and fun!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry that a pizza bit the dust, ya gotta watch the little boogers or they'll do that!!! Heeehehe!

What fun you all must have had! You must be related to my daughter in some way!! With my son-in-law being the athletic director, Trista is the host to a lot of sports get-togethers...she saves all left over party supplies and is always looking for a bargain on napkins, cups and plates...
ReplyDeleteGlad you all had a great evening..
You all always have so much fun when you get together! That what friends are for!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen Nancy post in a long time. Please send hugs her way for me.
Have a sweet day, Elizabeth
I think I have that very same chalkboard! Sorry about the lost pizza.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming over to visit my blog. Yours is great! I am like you, I save left over party supplies to use for future parties. It sure is nice to walk to the closet and pull out supplies instead of going to the store and spending lots of money! Carla
