Let the war over the purses begin....

My Purse and Desserts party went fantastic! We had a great variety of desserts from cheesecake to cupcakes that looked liked coffee cups!! I threw in sausage balls and chips and dip for a little salty.... I had around 22 in attendance,so I'd say a good turn out! We started the evening off by eating and visiting and eating some more,we LIKe to eat round here! I had a couple pre-games in store to play for door prizes. First we played, "Dessert Trivia",with questions like, "What is the main flavor in Tiramisu?" and "If you want a dessert called a Blizzard,what fast food restaurant would you go to?"  Which,down in the holler,we eat Banana Puddin,not so much Creme Brulee! So Aunt Karen won that game and recieved door prize filled with Scentsy products!! The next game we played was "What's in your purse?" Aunt Vicky won that one and recieved a makeup bag filled with goodies! Then the purse game began and just let me tell you, It Was War!!! We all opened a present first,then threw all the purses in the middle and played Dirty Purses,which I guess, is just another way of playing dirty santa...some of the purses were froze before some even got a turn!! Needless to say it was HIlarious! Aunt Kathy will probably never come to my party again,because there was no chance of her getting the purse she wanted and she was late for her card game! LOL. My sister in law brought a purse that was tiny,which is not her style,she ended up with it,no one wanted it...LOL,she said she would just take it back to Target. Nanbran brought a purse from her closet,too funny,she decided to come at the last minute...she went back home with it too! I ended up with an adorable brown purse which I won because of the alliance I formed with my Maw Maw...she ended up with the black one she really wanted too! Yes, I said alliance,you know like Survivor! This was a serious game,purses are a serious accessory and no laughing matter! LOL! It was a wonderful night with friends! My sister in law and cousin Nanbran stayed and helped me clean up,which was almost equally hilarious,we all are mama's now and don't get out much,so we are easily amused...we had no hot water to do the dishes...a raggedy old dust broom and mop to clean the floors,only one wash rag to clean the counters and supposedly the dishes with...but we managed to get the place looking good again. The garbage can outside almost ate my sister in law,which was very funny and then she tried to steal my cell phone,not really,but it did get stuck in her purse during clean up and here we are out in the rain, calling it,searching my vehicle and it is in her purse all along,too funny! I enjoyed hosting this party and I can't wait to plan the next one!!

Twas the night before the Purse and Desserts Party......

I am so very excited that my "Purse and Desserts" Party is tommorrow!! I can't believe it's finally here, I love to entertain! I am pretty well ready to party down,I have my purse and my dessert,so that's a good start. Actually, I have all the party supplies,door prizes and I also have 2 games for my guest to play....other than the actual "purse swap" game. These games are for the door prizes and they also go along with the theme. I am going to do a traditional,"What's in your Purse?" game and a "Dessert Trivia" game!! I hope I have a good turn out, I expect I will,but they are calling for storms,so....hopefully,it doesn't effect the party!! No one wants to be remembered for the girl that had the party that the tornado came and blew everyone away....So Lord willin we will have a possibly rainy,but severe weather free party! Wish me luck!           

                                         

Holler Baby Predictor

Here is yet another way that you can tell what the sex of you baby will be....this along with the pencil test was correct with all three of mine! A friend of one of the ladies that babysit my kids told me about this! But, this one only works when you actually are prego!

Take the month you conceived and add it to the age you are going to be when you have the baby.
For  example if you conceived In November and you will be 26 when you have your baby....you would add 11+26=37,so that means you are having a boy,it's an odd #,if it's an even # you are having a girl!

Holler Habits

While, I am probably the one of the most Unorganized people that I know...I married a man that probably has the most organized mama I know!! My mother-in-law is a wonderful lady who actually lives right down the road from me,she lives in the bottom of the holler and her mother lives next to her,who is also very organized. So boy did my hubby get a shock when he married me! LOL. Oh,well he love's me anyway!  My mama-in-law's life is a schedule...mine is chaotic!! We joke with her about her weekly routine,but just because we love her and this is what  works for her...
