Dinner Party

We had a dinner party at our house last month.  I put together a few little party details to go with the theme of the night.  We had a burger bar (since it was still summer weather and used the grill).  Some of the details of the dinner were:

• brown lunch bags cut with scalloped scissors wrapped with some ribbon and the logo of the night.
• brown butcher paper that I wrote on labeling all the different toppings.
• I used mason jars to hold the napkin and utensils.  I wrapped it with ribbon and used the logo of the night.  We used the mason jars for root beer floats for the dessert.
• I created some "burgers" with topping ideas and hung them from the ceiling (to help people create a burger... in case they need some help).
• I used "old-fashion" drive in food baskets for the toppings.

It was a super fun night and to end it, we played a white elephant game.  Everyone brought a white elephant gift.  We had a 30 minute time limit.  Each person rolled dice and any time someone rolled a double they got to pick a gift or steal a gift.  We just played until time ran out.  

The most wanted gifts were a wooden strategy puzzle kit, root beers with mustache tags and singing key chain and picnic basket for 2.  

The funniest gifts were spam and bacon soap and a "fancy" fake corsage from a sister's wedding.  It was hilarious.
