The party went absolutely fabulous yesterday!

(notice the annoying fly...he wanted to say his friends had a great time too)

I didn't get any pictures from the actual party's events, but some other family did have a camera out and about so I'm hoping to tag some from thm soon. :)

We had a TON of food! Which also meant a ton of dishes. Ha.

I bought way too much! I was starting to drive myself nuts with making sure there was enough and it turned out to be WAY more than I even needed. But it all was a hit and quite tasty if I say so myself and I think the leftovers will hold us through the week and I even was able to freeze a bunch of appetizers for a later date.

But we were thinking about it last night after everyone left, and if everyone had actually shown up (I only had two families that told me they couldn't make it and the rest of those who didn't show - well, shame on them!), then I would've had to make a lot more than we did. I still had enough supplies, just didn't use them all, so now my fridge is full of items to use this next weekend when B&C come to visit. I just gotta think of some sweet uses for meatballs... I have WAY too much of those left over. I guess a few casseroles are in order for the freezer. Make-ahead-meals... gotta love them!

 Now I can start catching up on sleep. Those many sleepless nights preparing and finishing projects around the house and prepping food, etc etc... I can't do that much longer. Guess that's a sign of me getting old. But I still have a few years until I catch up to Hubs. :)
