Hey ladies. I'm a fairly decent planner normally, but for this shindig in particular I find myself at a loss. DH originally requested to have his bday/super bowl party combo. He wanted wings and snacks and drinks. No problem. Now, DH has opted to have his bday party the Saturday before the super bowl, then also have friends over for the football game the next day. So now, what the heck do I do with all these people? He's saying not to make a big deal of it. But, I'm going to have 20 people over and no real entertainment. Should I come up with a theme? Movie marathon? Games? I just don't want it to be lame.
Re: XP: DH's 30th bday
I don't know, drinking is usually the theme of my parties.
We had people over last weekend and had a bonfire plus a couple games later on. A good time was had by all, I do believe.
I'd just like to say that I feel your pain.
LB humored me by coming to DH's bday party, and it was pretty awkward. But I'm a social idiot, so it wasn't that surprising. haha
Yeah, we don't normally have a real plan for our get togethers and they always turn out fine.....but there's normally a game on or something. haha I think I'm probably just putting too much pressure on myself over it!
Man, that's sucks that you have to entertain two nights in a row. I honestly don't know that I'd be down for that. What happened to superbowl/birthday party in one night?
If you're a better wife than I am, I'd just throw a party like usual on Saturday night since Sunday everyone will be occupied with football. Some apps, tons of drinks (for our crowd), and a few backup games in case things start getting dull. Depending on the size of the crowd, here are my favorites:
Dicecapades
Left Center Right
30 Seconds
But again, it all depends on the vibe and size of the crowd. Like brittjoy, most of our parties are a lot of drinking and socializing.
