I know I have not posted in a very long time and that is about to change!! My goal for this week is to try at least three new recipes and blog about them. Starting tomorrow!!

Today, I'd like to post a few pics from events I've done lately. I love being crafty and creative with social events. Anything from the invitations, to name tags, to food labels - I love it! Two months ago I hosted a social event at my house for a bunch of other officers' wives. I love playing board games, so I decided that the night would have a 'game night' theme. Once that was decided, I really ran with it!

When people arrived, the first thing they saw was the wreath
 :) This was particularly fun!

Then as they walked in the door this was straight ahead! 

I found the metal cards at Hobby Lobby. Best store ever!!

Random cards strung up together along the stairs, just for something extra :)

The food display!! Following are a few close ups...

I had a game name for everything. The veggies are The Wheel of Fortune and Good Health. On both sides are Jenga Veggie Sticks. Also, Phase 10 Ingredient Pasta Salad and Hit Me Again Chex Mix.

Everyone left with at least $100,000 ;)

Dominoes Brownies!! Saw these on pinterest and just had to try it! I was not going to go through and do each one so I just did the ones on top of the plate. They're also G-Free :)

Colonel Mustard Honey Mustard Chicken Skewers.

Miss Scarlet Red Hot Salsa and Mr Green's Guacamole. I loved these pieces from Clue Jr and they worked perfectly for the food labels!! Also really inspired me with naming the items.

Checkers Sandwiches! Another pinterest inspiration! 

I also had Boggle Your Mind Punch, which was actually wine (hence the boggling of the mind), sprite, and fruit mixture. A variety of other drinks were also available but they weren't so creative, just sodas and water, so they didn't warrant a photo :D Overall, the night was a huge success!! I was really happy with everything and was glad that everyone had a good time!
