Party Preparation

Today is the day before Sofia's party and I am in party prep mode. This is the first party I will have to have at a location other than my home. I am realizing it is a lot more work! Of course the stress is compounded since we don't have a car since now we need to figure out the logistics of getting everything to the party site. We have had friends offer to drive us over with all the stuff but that adds another layer of organization that I was just not ready for so Jason and I are working it out on our own. I have made he fruit salad and cut the veggies and have them ready in Tupperware. Luckily I had cleaned out the fridge a couple days ago and I don't go grocery shopping until Sunday so we have some space in the fridge for the Tupperware. Jason is purchasing all the drinks today and storing them at his desk so that tomorrow we can walk down the road from the party location and get them rather than dragging them into town with us in the morning. Tonight we will drop off all the party supplies (hats, blower things, plates, napkins, plastic ware, favors, etc.) in Jason's office as well before we go out for dinner. I think everything is falling into place. Keep your fingers crossed that we can get everything done tomorrow morning before the party starts so that the party goes off with out a hitch. With 17 kids I'm sure it will be complete mayhem so I'm sure Sofia will have a blast even if I don't get everything perfect. I will post tomorrow (if I'm not too exhausted) to let you know how the party went and I will post pictures as well.
