Game day meal planning.

Yesterday was our first Football Sunday in the new apartment. It was just the two of us, so I didn't go all out. Just a tray of cheese and crackers. I also didn't have any dishes or pots and pans unpacked yet, so was another factor.


Mike got a call last night that his friend wants to spend the night Saturday and do Football Sunday with us. This weekend is also going to be when our new roommate will be moving in. So Sunday looks like it will be an eventful day!


More people means meal planning! We've never hosted a game day before, usually we go over someone else's place. We have a lot to do to get the place ready to have company over. Especially since we have to go over to the old apartment tonight and tomorrow night to finish up over there. Then it's on to finishing unpacking here!


Just ordered a few things on Amazon to finish up the place. Mostly new things for Sterling's tank that we needed and an air mattress for if anyone wants to spend the night since we have a spare room.


My father is supposed to finish up the floor in the spare room tonight, I can't want until the place it finally finished.


That reminds me. I need to take a trip to Bed Bath & Beyond to try and find a certain piece of artwork for my living room wall!


Here's what I'm thinking for Sundays game day menu:
  • Pepperoni Dip
  • Cheeseburger sliders
  • Honey Siracha wings
  • Salsa & Queso dip
  • Possibly some sort of cheese and crackers
I know it's not a lot of food, but there will only be 4 of us. I don't want to go over board!






Until next time!

Moving is so much work!

We're officially moved in, but we still have a lot of work to do. We ended up fall a sleep on the couch last night and sleeping all the way through til morning. 

Tomorrow and Tuesday we have to go back to the apartment and finish getting all our little things we left there and cleaning things up. 

Wednesday should be out walk through and then we're officially out of the old place. It's a little sad but I know we will enjoy this place so much more. It already feels like home.

Moving update...

Well it's been two months since we decided to move, and moving day is finally here!
We are in no way prepared! We start moving things tonight and hope to be all finished tomorrow!


We've gotten a lot of work done in the new apartment but it's not fully finished yet. So far my dad has redone our entire master bedroom & bathroom. New floors and paint. He also gave the main bathroom a face lift. Mike and I painted our living room, and after my dad gets back from vacation tomorrow he needs to finish the new floor in the second bedroom upstairs and also start working on the kitchen which needs new floors and paint. It's going to be orange!


It's going to be a long two days, but hopefully Sunday we can relax and watch football in our new place!
