Preparing for my son's open house

in #life7 years ago

It is the little things

I like my free coupon codes I get. And one of the things I get made is puzzles. Sometimes I put my nature photography on them. Sometimes I make them for my family reunions auction. The last time I got a code for a free puzzle. I had some of my son photos put on it for his Open House.

I will put this out as a decor piece on the gift table

I did something similar at his sisters open house. It was really nice and I decided I liked it so much I would do it again for his. I need to get some board to do a photo board. The food is planned and so is the candy bar. Now it is about assembly of everything and getting it together on time. I am about to go in 100% prep mode over the next month. The magic of a kick butt graduation party doesn't happen by itself.

I plan to put it together this month

I will then use some elmers glue to glue the pieces together so I will be able to transfer it in one piece to the open house location. We are going to have it in ths same cabin I get for our family reunions. As many of my family will come as his dads side of the family plus friends. This cabin will easily host everyone as they filter in and out over a 4 hour period.

I will have it all decorated for graduation

Instead of a reunion banner the front will be decorated for the party. Balloons and graduation decor. It is just a month and a few days away now. Graduation is less than a month away. My baby @ultrawing is growing up.

Nice work. You should do more for your family.

Wow I’ve never heard of an “open house” before? Is that like a graduation party?

Yes that is what it is. We call them open houses here cause most people have them in their houses.
