We ended up with 49 people coming. 3 families cancelled day of due to sick kids. It ended up being the perfect amount. All the adults were able to sit and watch the game while the kids played in the basement. It was warm enough that the kids were able to play outside before it got too dark.
We had a good mix of food. We have a lot of left over chili and pulled pork but I froze it for my husband to eat another time.
Unfortunately, the birthday girl was one of the people who cancelled and I didn't get her text until I had already started making the cupcake. I made it anyway and it was a big hit with the kids.
As usual I didn't see much of the game but did catch the tail end and was glad the Giants won. I actually don't think anyone at the party was rooting for the Pats. I think everyone's gotten tired of Brady and Belichick. I know I have.
I managed to get the kitchen pretty well cleaned up while my son napped and am feeling much better now. Hopefully once I get the kids to bed, I'll get some of the downstairs put back together.
