Themed party?  
Why do we have to have the best idea
at the same time we have a million other things to do?

There has been a long standing agreement that all of the college guys would get together the weekend after Smash Brothers Brawl came out, and that means party at our house Saturday! Well, Justin made the mistake of mentioning that we could make some SB themed food... immediately my crafting brain is in ecstatic overdrive. A themed party?? Yes, please! (SB is made up of the main nintendo characters, so there is so much you can do)

And then we stepped back and looked at all of the things we have coming up now through Sunday ~ yikes. We have no kids to drive to clubs/classes, our schedules are pretty open most of the time. But it seems everything is jammed into the next few days ~

Tonight we need to make batch after batch of cookies and brownies that will be sold as a school fundraiser tomorrow. Friday we really need to do cleaning for guests, and hopefully get some more pictures hung & things arranged around the apartment. Saturday morning there is a meeting, followed by the get-together (and people spending the night). And on Sunday we have church, then a membership meeting, then small group, which we need to bring a casserole for. And I am probably forgetting something! How did all of this get thrown on the same weekend?

But...
I am not going to let this stop the festivities.
There will be a themed party!
There will be lots of pictures of all of the cute food and decorations.
It will get done somehow!!

Then again, I don't want to run myself ragged so that I can't even enjoy myself when our friends arrive. We will have to take it one step at a time and scale things down if necessary. Even if we only have time to make one plate of nintendo themed cookies, that is better than no nintendo cookies at all!
