This and That

Happy Thursday, Everyone!

I have a little bit of this and a little bit of that for you today. 🙂

First up, is our football dinner we had earlier this week. After learning about all the Game Time Goodies Wal-Mart has to offer, I ordered some fun festive touches to make our table special.

{Last year we did this on the opening night of baseball season, but someone got a hold of a “bad hot dog” and let’s just say the night didn’t end well.}

Who knew I’d be one-click away from football-party-throwing-ready thanks to Wal-Mart?

I shared the jerseys I bought my crew on Wal-Mart.com earlier this month and wanted to share some of the other cute items they have to get you Game Day ready.

I grabbed this football garland, football table cloth {mine exact table cloth is sold out-if you’re hosting a party with lots of tables, banquet, or something similar-I’d recommend this roll, plates, napkins, popcorn boxes, pinata, and toothpicks. I set it up while my kiddos were upstairs playing on Sunday afternoon and they were so excited when they came downstairs. #itsthelittlethings

I made a variety of Shay’s Super Bowl Bites…sausage balls, chicken bites, queso and more. Since Ebby Lee has braces and popcorn is a big NO, I filled the little boxes with tortilla chips for the queso.

See those “we’re #1” hands? They came in a pack of eight and after the kiddos ate they decorated them {with just markers} with their favorite teams’ colors. That’d make a great football party craft!

These goodies would be great for a football-themed birthday party, Game Day, or it was a fun way to spice up a regular dinner and everyone in my family loved it!

And remember if you’re on the hunt for Game Day Gear, be sure to check out Wal-Mart. They have a wide variety of items all at great prices!

You can shop it all right here…

Thanks to Wal-Mart for sponsoring a portion of this post.

I asked last week for recommendations for shows similar to some of my past faves…

Like all of these. 🙂

You guys were so sweet to send me your suggestions and I’ve had several people ask if I’d post all the shows you guys recommended. I’m a people pleaser, so I’m giving the people what they’re asking for. Ha! Be prepared-this list is LONG! But I hope everyone leaves today with a new show they’d like to watch.

I’ve watched these and just forgot to mention them…

Friday Night Lights

Tab and I watched this show while it was on so we had to wait {PATIENTLY} every week for a new episode.

The OC

Tab and I watched this the first year we were married and loved it!

90210

I’m pretty sure I had a super similar poster hanging on my wall when I was younger.

90210

I loved this version too.

Dawson’s Creek

I watched Dawson’s Creek when it was on…so good!

This Is Us

I watched most of the first season, but I got behind and could not keep up. And it left me so emotionally drained each week-I gave it up. After your comments, maybe I need to retry this one?

Brothers and Sisters

I LOVED this show…super similar to Parenthood.

Schitt’s Creek

My mom is reading this somewhere shaking her head. I’m not sure I’ve seen all the seasons? This one isn’t appropriate with kiddos in the room. Rated R for language!
