<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now here's a tip - you want to make sure that you send out your Save the Date announcement typically 6 months before the wedding takes place. It helps guests start to plan, especially if they are coming from a distance. Not to mention it gets them excited for the big day!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are a lot of options out there for possible Save the Dates, so we have complied a list of our favorites. Enjoy...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This weekend we are getting together with friends to watch some of our all-time favorite movies. But instead of doing it
inside we are going to take advantage of the warm weather and have a backyard
movie bash!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AMU_jl9L6i0/U8aCjPG-iBI/AAAAAAAABAE/tBEsFlOE5Fs/s1600/Event19+-+Backyard+Movie+Bash.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AMU_jl9L6i0/U8aCjPG-iBI/AAAAAAAABAE/tBEsFlOE5Fs/s1600/Event19+-+Backyard+Movie+Bash.jpg" height="435" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The first (and most important) step is to get an over-sized screen
to view your movie on. The easiest and most cost effective way is to throw up a
plain white sheet and use a projector, but if you want to get a bit fancy, you and purchase an inflatable widescreen movie screen like <a href="http://www.target.com/p/inflatable-widescreen-movie-screen-7-6/-/A-14726297?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&AFID=google_pla_df&LNM=14726297&CPNG=Electronics&kpid=14726297&LID=10pgs&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=14726297&gclid=Cj0KEQjwxZieBRDegZuj9rzLt_ABEiQASqRd-rSQnVo9jCaRr__YRLFXIADvEc0jWmO6kLzIApFGLh8aApnT8P8HAQ"><span style="color: blue;">this one</span></a> from <a href="http://www.target.com/"><span style="color: blue;">Target</span></a>. Either option
will allow you to sit back, relax and watch a movie on the “big screen.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After you have decided which screen you would like to
use, you need to figure out seating. You can use blankets, chairs,
lawn cousins, pillows, really whatever you have laying around the house. Just make sure
it’s something soft and conformable. And don't forget, it can get cold out so make sure to supply your guests with extra blankets. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><o:p> </o:p>Next step is to figure out the food situation. Popcorn is a
must! You can't have movie night with salty delicious popcorn. You can make this beforehand or make it throughout the night by using an Old Fashion Popcorn Maker. You can either rent one from your local party supply store or buy one from places like <a href="http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nostalgia-electrics-kettle-popcorn-popper-red/2673068.p?id=1219075840531&skuId=2673068&ref=06&loc=01&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=2673068&extensionType=pla:g&s_kwcid=PTC!pla!!!40181308719!g!!43604818239&kpid=2673068&k_clickid=51bcb618-d13c-b9a9-c276-00002fd50a13"><span style="color: blue;">Best Buy</span></a> or<span style="color: blue;"> <a href="http://www.kohls.com/product/prd-1133863/Nostalgia-Electrics-Old-Fashioned-Movie-Time-Popcorn-Maker.jsp?ci_mcc=ci&srccode=cii_17588969&cpncode=26-370139911-2&CID=shopping15"><span style="color: blue;">Kohl's</span></a>.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">You will also need something to put your popcorn in. We love these popcorn boxes form <a href="http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/popcorn-boxes-set/?pkey=e%7Cpopcorn%7C4%7Cbest%7C0%7C1%7C24%7C%7C4&cm_src=PRODUCTSEARCH||NoFacet-_-NoFacet-_-Feature_Recipe_Rule"><span style="color: blue;">Williams-Sonoma.</span></a></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And don't forget to provide your guests with different popcorn seasons. You can purchase them from your local specialty grocery store or online from <a href="http://www.kernelseasons.com/shop/6-popcorn-seasonings"><span style="color: blue;">Kernel Season's.</span></a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">You will also have to have something sweet. Give your guests lots of different snack sized options that they can either have on the side or if they are daring - add to their popcorn.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hey
Everyone! Sorry
we have been MIA lately. It’s been a little crazy over here for us (which we
really can’t complain about :-)</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now
that things have stabilized (a bit) we can get back to sharing with you some
fun ideas for your upcoming events!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Can
you believe that it’s the end of the school year already?! Our school only has
one week left. How is that possible? Where has the time gone? It feels like
this year flew by faster than last year. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So
with only a couple of days left of the school year we have had countless
parents asking what they can give to their kids teachers. Everyone wants to
give something unique to say thank you for making their child’s year exceptional.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">One event that we are most proud of is the Warwick Foundation for Excellence in Learning (WFEL) fundraising event that we volunteered to help plan and execute.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This past weekend WFEL partnered with the <a href="http://www.wineanddesignus.com/location/warwick-ny/home"><span style="color: blue;">Wine and Design</span></a> art studio where l</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">ocal teachers, board members, and town members enjoyed two hours at the studio painting as they sipped on wine and snacked on appetizers. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Twenty-five percent of the total sales were donated to the organization and all </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">attendees were able to bring home the masterpiece they created during the class. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here are a few snapshots of the artists hard at work.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Today is opening day for the 2014 Winter Olympics so have some fun with the kiddies and make these Olympic Torch Cupcakes to mark this monumental day.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Read below for step-by-step directions on how to put this torch together, courtesy of </span><a href="http://creativepartyideasbycheryl.blogspot.com/" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="color: blue;">Creative Party Ideas by Cheryl </span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 22px;">Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions. Cool completely.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: center;">Crumble the cake into a large bowl. Add 16 ounces of your choice of frosting and mix well.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: center;">Gently spoon the cake mixture into a sugar cone. You don’t want it to break! Fill cone to the top, slightly mounded.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: center;">Divide the vanilla frosting into two bowls. Dye half of the frosting red and half of the frosting yellow.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: center;">Holding the sugar cone in one hand, place the icing tip in the middle of the cone, squeeze, and pull away. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: center;">Keep it up until the top of the cone is covered with frosting.</span></li>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">First: Make sure you have decorations; there are tons of places to purchase these, such as <a href="http://www.partycity.com/product/super+bowl+party+supplies.do?navSet=110494&intcmp=home_slide1_main-block_NFL_home-rotation-nfl-140101_131230"><span style="color: blue;">partycity</span></a>, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/search?q=superbowl%20decorations&order=most_relevant&view_type=gallery&ship_to=US&ref=auto1"><span style="color: blue;">etsy</span></a>, <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/super-bowl-a1-90000+1525-1.fltr"><span style="color: blue;">oriental trading</span></a>, etc. You can always make your own if you have the time.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UpSogE7simU/UubNoP1_cBI/AAAAAAAAA2k/gxNZuTHbe7U/s1600/Event19+-+Superbowl+Event+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UpSogE7simU/UubNoP1_cBI/AAAAAAAAA2k/gxNZuTHbe7U/s1600/Event19+-+Superbowl+Event+2.jpg" height="320" width="213" /></span></a></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://catchmyparty.com/photos/1589542">Photo Source</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Second: Give your guests the freedom to create their own delicious creation. Instead of going the traditional route (subs, hot wings, pizza), create a potato, hot dog, chili and/or pretzel bar. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We are opting for the hot dog and pretzel bar ourselves. </span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For the hot dog bar you can offer onions, mustard, ketchup, sauerkraut, chili, cheese, sour cream, relish, whatever.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Qeo3pzXexhw/UubOzHUaydI/AAAAAAAAA20/mCwNflD7ItE/s1600/Event19+-+Superbowl+Event+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Qeo3pzXexhw/UubOzHUaydI/AAAAAAAAA20/mCwNflD7ItE/s1600/Event19+-+Superbowl+Event+3.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://modcitymag.com/football-party-food-hot-dog-bar/"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">Source</span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For the pretzel bar we are giving our guests the option of both hot (homemade) pretzels and bags of pretzels that you would get from your local supermarket. They will be accompanied by different dipping sauces like chocolate, mustard, honey mustard, cheddar cheese, etc. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Third: You can't have a Super Bowl party without beer, so give your guests a selection of beers that reflect the two rival teams. Need some inspiration on which beers to get, then check out this article in </span><a href="http://www.today.com/food/super-bowl-beer-brawl-what-drink-while-rooting-your-team-2D11997570" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="color: blue;">Today Food</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B4RuxSBe-WU/UubR_AIccgI/AAAAAAAAA3E/KLURC5y46sI/s1600/Event19+-+Superbowl+Event+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B4RuxSBe-WU/UubR_AIccgI/AAAAAAAAA3E/KLURC5y46sI/s1600/Event19+-+Superbowl+Event+5.jpg" height="180" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Fourth: Organize some party games. One idea could be to have each guest predict the winner's final score and write it down on a tag that's tied to their drink. Whoever gets the closest to the correct score wins something fun like <a href="http://www.crateandbarrel.com/search?query=beer%20glasses">beer mug</a>s or this <a href="http://www.crateandbarrel.com/craft-beer-world/s101109">Craft Beer Mug book.</a></span></div>

Here are some fun and unique things that can make your wedding a little out of the ordinary.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Create this sign to allow your family to start bonding and become one as soon as they step foot into the ceremony.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3BT1C-svPtA/Ut_5kpjoxdI/AAAAAAAAA1w/MXTjJXi2Mis/s1600/Event19-Fun&UniqueWedding3jpg.jpg" height="320" width="213" /></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">During the ceremony or at the reception place love letters that were written to each other the night before in a box with a bottle of wine and nail it shut. Then when you have your first fight as husband and wife, open up the box, pour the wine, and read the love letters to each other. It will help you both remember what this marriage is really about.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-epAyOhTTlaw/Ut_5khln9ZI/AAAAAAAAA1s/AklixfnzsY0/s1600/Event19-Fun&UniqueWedding2.jpg" height="212" width="320" /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Place this <a href="https://www.blogger.com/Love%20Story%20http://www.etsy.com/listing/128135870/personalized-large-3ftx4ft-love-story"><span style="color: blue;">Love Story timeline</span></a> someplace somewhere...It's just too adorable not to.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Most wedding cakes are primary picked out by the bride, so at the bottom hide whatever the groom likes...sports mascot, band logo, anything; because this day is for the both of you.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-u_77hz_aUOs/Ut_5lN5orwI/AAAAAAAAA10/UFdoZh9FkVA/s1600/Event19-Fun&UniqueWedding4jpg.jpg" height="320" width="298" /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">At the end of the night, everyone is usually looking for something to snack on, so put together a mid-night snack for each guest to take home with them.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VAu5EuxhK7E/Ut_5l-6BqnI/AAAAAAAAA2E/-3ygKV1_hJo/s1600/Event19-Fun&UniqueWedding6.jpg" height="320" width="215" /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">You can also give your overnight guests these door hangers so housekeeping do not disturb them after their long night of celebrating. </span></div>

For the nose you can use orange felt and tiny black buttons for the eyes.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Most of the time we spend the holiday's catching up with friends
and family, but what do the kids do while we are endlessly chatting away? Let
me guess... they are either sitting in front of the TV zoning out, or staring
at us completely bored, wondering when they can do something somewhat exciting.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">So this year, why not have a fun activity planned for them? Maybe
it's decorating their own <a href="http://www.bhg.com/christmas/ornaments/easy-ornaments-kids-can-make/"><span style="color: blue;">Christmas tree ornaments</span></a> or <a href="http://www.orientaltrading.com/snowman-photo-frame-magnet-craft-kit-a2-48_8342.fltr?prodCatId=388760&tabId=6"><span style="color: blue;">holiday frame</span></a>. Or you can make your own <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/270209/cookie-cottages-how-to?czone=holiday/workshop-christmas/workshop-christmas-handbook&center=0&gallery=275559&slide=181066"><span style="color: blue;">personal gingerbread house</span></a>. This is our favorite
and has been a tradition in our household for years. It's very simple; all you
need is some graham crackers, icing, and candy. The kids will be occupied
decorating (and eating) for hours! </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt; text-align: justify;">We love
planning "friends only" parties because it allows us to be as CRAZY
as we want to be. So as we sat around thinking about what to do this year, we kept
on coming back to the same question; do we tone it down a bit this year since
we are getting wiser (but not older), or do we make this a year to remember.
Um...why not do both and have a Naughty and Nice party. Don't know how to play
both sides of the coin? Then read on.</span></div>

have a greedy grab bag. Haven't heard of this? Basically each person brings a
gift worth x amount (you decide on the amount), then each person takes a turn
to pick a gift; they can choose either a wrapped gift or they can steal one
that someone has already opened. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Today's post is all about how you can jazz up your
upcoming office holiday party. We know that this can be a challenge for a lot
of people, so read on to learn how to make it fun, yet still
professional. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><b>First step: </b>Ask<b> </b>yourself where do you want to host this shindig? Do you want
to keep it low-key and budget friendly by holding it in your office, or do you
want to break out of the m</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;">onotonous</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">office
environment and go to a local restaurant? Regardless what you do, have some
fun; decorate it with holiday cheer. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="separator" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><b>Second step:</b> Figure out what you want to serve your group. Do you want to have a buffet, or
plated meal? Or maybe you just want to serve cocktails and appetizers? Oh, and
let's not forget about the dessert (the best part of the meal). Why not contact
a local bakery and have these scrumptious cupcakes made?</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div align="center" class="separator" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><b>Final step: </b>Think about how to make the party stand out
and be remembered. Maybe you bring in a photo booth. Coworkers can take group
pictures that they can display at their desk all year round. Or maybe you hire
an outside gaming company and set up an activity like a casino night, where you
can play to win raffle tickets. These raffle tickets can be used to win prizes
like a iPad, flat-screen tv, gift certificates, etc. (we did both, the photo
booth and casino night at our office holiday party last year, and it was a huge
hit)!</span> </div>
