Election Night Spectacular

Hey y'all,

I wanted to take this blog-time to share with you the amazingness that was our Election Night party. We began the festivities at 8:30PM with a number of people showing up and chowing down on the food selection we had prepared. Make-your-own cupcakes dominated most of the table, with blue, red, and white icing available to make designs. There were a number of really great ones - an Obama logo, a Union Jack, and the Stars and Stripes, of course. We also bought some green, blue, and red candies to place around the table in fun assortments.

Outside of food we had some great activities planned as well. Election Night Bingo, where participants wrote down words they thought would be said, was a hit. We gave out some fairly ridiculous prizes (Mardis Gras beads, anyone?) to the winners of that game. We also had t-shirt making with your favorite campaign slogan and fill-in-the-country maps for those who wanted to follow along.

It was a great night. For more than just those reasons. Yeah for change!

Brian
