View Full Version : San Diego Halloween (and Hunter's B-Day) Party - October 27th
Brandi 10-02-2007, 10:09 PM Let's start planning it! As we come up with details, I'll edit this post.
Let us know what you're bringing, who you're bringing (kids, hubby, just yourself, friends, etc) and all that great stuff.
This is going to be a Halloween slash Hunter's Birthday Party, but it'll be mostly Halloween so all of the kids feel like a big part of everything.
Costumes are definitely welcome but not necessary.
I'm hoping everyone can bring one thing. I will be doing cupcakes, a side dish and goodie bags.
Who is coming:
Brandi (duh :lol )
Trey
Rebecca
Heather
Melissa
Aubrey
Adrienne
Rachael
Meghann
Lacey
Lindsey- maybe

List of who's bringing what:
Potato Salad - Brandi
Pasta Salad - either Kristi or Brandi if Kris doesn't want to bring it
Fruit Salad- Aubrey
Pigs in Blankets- Melissa M.
Broccoli and Cheese Casserole- Rachael
Cupcakes- Brandi
Chips - Trey
Dip - Trey
Cookies - Trey
Plates - Rebecca, Melissa
Drinks - Rebecca, Meghann, Heather
Dessert - Rebecca, Lacey
Utensils- Lacey
Games - Melissa
Goodie Bags- Brandi
What we need:
Drinks
A couple of people to pitch in for some burgers or chicken or something
side dishes
chips/snacks
utensils, plates, cups
games?
Any other ideas or details you want to throw out there?
I'm thinking around 4pm if that's okay with everyone? I'll edit this post with a definite date at the top if we all agree on 4pm.

Brandi 10-18-2007, 09:09 PM First post has been updated with who's coming and who's bringing what. If you want to change what you want to bring, just let me know and I'll update the first post.
I've got a bunch of stuff for little goodie bags, a cake, pasta and potato salad, and will probably have burgers and hot dogs also.
MelissaMc424 10-18-2007, 09:33 PM I'm gonna try and talk DH into coming with us, but I can't guarantee his presence..LOL
Heather 10-18-2007, 09:39 PM I'll still be coming with my kiddos and no Hubby (:() I'll bring some drinks since I forgot to grab the stuff I need for my strawberry thing.
Brandi 10-18-2007, 09:41 PM I might actually try to make a punch or something. I don't know though since we already have three people bringing drinks. I'm sort of in the mood for a fruity punch of some sort though, you know the kind with a little spritz of carbonation.

Sprite or Ginger Ale and Hawaiian Punch are what my mom's always mixed together for "party" punch. It's yummy! She always used ginger ale.. but sprite will work in a pinch.
Do you have a punch bowl?? I do if you need it.

Ya I was thinking something super simple like that would be really good. I don't have a punch bowl, but I'm not 100% sure I'm going to make it yet either since 3 people are bringing drinks already. Maybe if we can switch up some things and have someone bring chips and dip or something like that instead of drinks, I'll make the punch if you bring the punch bowl :yes
Rileysmom 10-18-2007, 09:51 PM I'll stil be there with the big turd and the small turd! :mrgreen
Hey does anyone need or want any boxes of baby cereal? I have about 6 boxes of them and would be glad to pass them on to someone that needs or wants them. I know they aren't expensive, but a penny saved is a penny earned, right? :hehe
Meghann 10-18-2007, 09:54 PM I was one of the people offering to bring drinks, so I can either bring the stuff to do the punch (if Melissa will bring the bowl) or I'll bring chips and dip and Brandi, you can do the punch (if Melissa will bring the bowl :lol). I don't care either way.
Kaymara 10-18-2007, 10:22 PM We're still a maybe. Ethans first day of soccer is that day as well as his soccer pics. I need to find out exact times for all of that and then I will know
If you liked the virgin drunken watermelon punch I brought to that bbq its real easy. Just buy a seedless watermelon, scrape the inside and put in a blender. Blend it up and then strain it to get the pulp and any possible seeds out. Add that juice into a bowl with a bottle of sprite and chill it or use lots of ice :D And you can use your watermelon shell as the punchbowl :) Just cut the bottom enough to where it will stand up on its own and the top enough that its open. If you dont want it virgin then add the tequila and triple sec in there. But I personally think the virgin one rocks :rofl
MelissaMc424 10-18-2007, 11:38 PM Ya I was thinking something super simple like that would be really good.

Sounds good.. I can handle that.. we'll use the disposable cups that way I don't have to worry about having enough of the "fancy" ones..lol
MelissaMc424 10-18-2007, 11:39 PM I was one of the people offering to bring drinks, so I can either bring the stuff to do the punch (if Melissa will bring the bowl) or I'll bring chips and dip and Brandi, you can do the punch (if Melissa will bring the bowl :lol). I don't care either way.
Got it, here's my list:
Pigs N blankets
honey butter
punch bowl/ladle
Rachael 10-19-2007, 01:06 AM How fun, I cant wait! We're having issues with our costumes so we might go as dog the bounty hunter and beth :lol
We will be there :)
What is still needed.
Rileysmom 10-19-2007, 02:18 PM How fun, I cant wait! We're having issues with our costumes so we might go as dog the bounty hunter and beth :lol
:roflmao What about Peg? :sadeyes :lmao No, I feel ya, we were gonna do Zach Morris and Kelly from Saved By the Bell, but we both have the wrong colored hair, and it just wasn't looking how we wanted it to... so we are still undecided.
MelissaMc424 10-20-2007, 07:50 PM DH has agreed to come along.. I just told him about it and he said he'd come, as long as I said we didn't have to dress up.. so we're coming as ourselves.. Camryn will be coming as Dorothy. She's loving that she's gonna get to wear her costume several times.
mackenziesmommy 10-20-2007, 10:49 PM Depends on the time...I have a partylite show at 2 and hubby has their family day cruise that day...he'll be home by 4 so if it's the evening then we should be able to.
