Alright people (like the 4 of you who read my blog)- Ali' 1st Birthday Party is 2 weekends away (CAN YOU BELIEVE IT'S BEEN A YEAR ALREADY! I'M FLABBERGASTED AT HOW FAST THE TIME IS GOING *tear*)... and here's my plan: the party is at 11:00 on Sunday, and we did that to avoid having to spend a bunch of money on serving up a meal. So I'm planning to have appetizers and cake, and I'm not sure what to offer as appetizers? Stuff that's not too fancy, or expensive!
I also am wondering if all the little kids that will be over (ages 2-5) are going to be bored at our house? I'm hoping it's not too hot so we can hang outside mostly, but should I get a crazy kids' sprinkler or something to give them stuff to do? Or will they just figure it out?
Leave it to me to stress about stupid crap, but hey- it's what I do, alright!

A cheap sprinker from wal-mart is PERFECT. Just warn the parents that their kids will be getting wet.
Cheap appatizer that is LOVED by all.
-1 lb. sausage (you know, it comes in a round tube in the fridge section, like Jimmy Dean or something).
-1 lb. Velveeta cheese
-Rye bread slices
Cook and crumble sausage, being sure not to drain the grease. Melt cheese in with the sausages. stir well until cheese is melted. While the mixture is hot, spread on rye bread slices. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
OMG its good. They go like hotcakes every time I make them. Another good one is pigs in a blanket!
Cut each crescent roll square into 4 pieces, wrap around sausage. Bake as directed on the crescent roll packaging. :)
Great, now I'm hungery....
I hope it is a WONDERFUL party! She'll love it!
whoo weee!!! happy birthday to your little one!!!
i heart walmart with regard to a birthday party!!!
You want to keep those kids occupied, trust me!
One thing we did for Callie's party is let the kids decorate their own cupcake. Get little plastic shot glasses from the dollar store and fill each with a few sprinkles, m and m's etc. I highly suggest frosting first, don't let them do it LOL
Also, another awesome thing we did for M's parties - get the huge Costco pizzas (they even come half one kind, half another) and bake those up. They are reasonable and taste good. Plus, everyone (except of course Morgan) likes pizza!
