We have my side’s St. Nicholas Party coming up and with the challenges of trying to get everyone all together at once, we decided to have this annual party to include the Christmas gift exchanges. Now granted this isn’t a small little task to get everyone all together. The last time I counted there are 57 people who will be joining us this year and honestly doesn’t that sound like a party just waiting to happen!!
But with that many people also comes a challenge of where we can have the get together. So this year it’s going to be at our farm and I couldn’t be more excited. Now the planning begins! And what comes with planning? Well… spreadsheets of course! The first one is one that I’ve made that divided out all the food that we will need for the party. Each family will be bringing a food category (desserts, salads.. ) and hopefully it’ll work OK. It should, but since it’s the first time that we’re doing this I guess we’ll see.
So the spreadsheets that I made look a little too boring and I realized that I needed to personalize them a little bit. I decided to make up some St. Nick’s cards quick to go along with them and I think it might have worked. I gave two of them out last week and these are the ones that I’m planning on hand delivering tomorrow. They all had the same theme but just a little different.
