We've got lots of beer, wine, and soda! Yeah, we are gonna have way too much, as always, but the local place we got the food from is soooo good we won't mind having leftovers! Tomorrow is football day, after all!

This morning my Mom, MIL, and I went to our favorite little craft fair. I so love this! But, it is pouring rain here today so it kinda kills the fall atmosphere. Last year, the craft fair was THE perfect, quintessentially fall day: sunny, blue skies, crisp, blustery, leaves swirling ... just perfect! We still enjoyed it though! And I know exactly where each of my favorites will be. And I got what I wanted! I can't share here, though, because most of it is gifts!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
So now we are just hanging out, relaxing a bit, resting up for a fun night! I will probably start geting ready around 2:30 or so because I plan on getting to my Mom and Dad's early to set up.
Hope everyone is enjoying their Saturday!

Wow! Looks like alot of fun! We are excited to meet your family and friends! And you weren't kidding when you said you were going to have good food!! Kevin and I have never had cannolis before so we will experience more new stuff tonight! :) See you soon!:)
Have a wonderful time tonight! That menu looks amazing! I hear ya about the craft fair, too... Ours is still going on, but with the rain, I have failed to venture out of the house just yet. I'm hoping I get down there before the hour/fair is up! If not, I'm just going to say it was an epic rain fail and hope for better luck next year.
I can't wait to hear how things go tonight!! I'm so jealous about the Spanakopita... I had it every single morning for breakfast when I was on Paxos, Greece a few years back and I LOVED it. Send some out this way, please? :)
Have fun and many birthday wishes to Kevin! Welcome, to the other side of the hill! LOL
Love spanakopita. Your menu sounds fabulous. And Happy Birthday to Kevin!
Sounds like a great night!!! Happy Birthday Kevin!
Happy Birthday Kevin!
Now I'm starving....
Sweet Mama! That list of food is making my mouth water and my stomach growl!
I've been so consumed with all things Renaissance that I am waaaaay behind in my blog reading and therefore missed your party list, which includes UTZ!! I hope Kevin had a fantastic day :D and got to nosh on plenty of cheese balls. Ahhhh...what a perfect birthday!
