So we're having the in-laws stay with us for the week...

We've never had people over who've stayed overnight. We're having DH's parents and aunt stay with us for Thanksgiving week. They'll be here tomorrow.

Can you give us some tips for overnight houseguests?

P.S. We won''t be cooking Thanksgiving dinner. We''l go over to my parents' house on Thursday.

  • Make sure the house is clean, beds are made up, and you've got towels for them to use. Let them know where to find drinking glasses and snacks. Make sure you've got plenty of toilet paper. That's all I've got. :)
  • Any allergies? My mom couldn't be around our pup so we had them in a different area of the house, new sheets...and food, any dietary needs taken ahead of time is a special touch.  I appreciate soy milk available for cereal as a guest, makes me feel more comfortable Smile
  • Super clean house and the room they are staying in even more so. Fresh sheets  and blanket on their bed. Sandwich and snack stuff. Anything to drink and eat that you know they love. Tell them to make themselves at home.

    And I agree with the other poster, have on hand lots of towels and toilet paper and an extra toothbrush, etc.
