Quite the Party Planner!

Dear Diary, Well last week I volunteered to host a Twilight Saga party at my house! I am super excited about it! We are having dinner and watching New Moon. I have all these ideas about decorations and the menu :) We are having four cheese raviolis, with simple marinara sauce, and a green salad for dinner. For refreshments we are having, Wolf Pack Puppy chow (Chex Muddy Buddies), red velvet cupcakes with forks stuck in the top :), suckers that are heart shaped...and some other shapes...they are going to be flavored with Cinnamon - Jake's heat, and Crem de Menth - for Edwards cool, and then just cherry...because it is a popular flavor, and then we are having Jakob (Hershey) Hugs and Edward (Hershey) Kisses, and I have some red colored bottled drinks, I am gonna make my own labels for them, I got a 24 pack of water for $3, 10 red Jones Sodas for $0.70 each, and 8 red/pink SoBe's for $0.49 each I am super proud of myself! I have been looking on all sorts of websites for different decoration ideas for this party. One site suggested that you decorate in all red, black and white/grey. My favorite colors. They also suggested that you use a ton of candles, and some hurricanes/vases that are pretty plain, but then you can put fruit in them or flowers or candles...I started looking for some plain vases, and most places they are like $20 and up, but then I went to Wal-Mart (my favorite store) and found similar ones for $3-5, but then I went to the Dollar Store, and they had some there too!!! I got 5 vases, 3 that are the same and then 2 more that are slightly smaller. I was so excited! Also at Walmart, they had plastic fruit, that actually looks pretty real, I think I am going to get some of that to decorate with...then I can use it again in the future. Where the drinks go, one site had just a picture frame with Thirsty? printed out in Fangish font and stuck in a frame. I always get way into themes :) We are going to be headed up to Idaho over Labor day weekend this year, for Teke's Baptism and Tava Jean's blessing. (different name huh?) I told my Mother-in-law that I am making the suckers for my twilight party, so she asked if I could make some to take out to Heather and Jeremy's for the party after the baptism and blessing. She wants at least 100 suckers. but I am not worried, they are so easy to make...just have to have molds that work :) She told me she has a ton of different flavorings too! I need to go over there and steal some!
