So I've talked to my BIL's wife one time, really, about the show they are hosting for me on october 16. I sent her some dessert recipes and she said she'd rather have an actual meal...my BIL called and said they needed MORE invitations (already sent out all 40)...AND she needed more outside order forms - THEN after I sent her the 30 minute chicken recipe - she said we will need to make a second one to have ready enough food for everyone. we are also doing the primavera potato bites...
they are really into their church - and the church has over 200 members.

i must say - while i'm trying not to get my hopes up - i'm getting SO excited!!! :D
 
I wish you all the best with that. Great hosts make my day.

Thanks! And - just to clarify - it's not that i'm NOT going to host coach her - I do plan on it - but we are 3 and a half weeks away - I'd prefer to do it at the 2 and 1 week marks. :D

But they both (my SIL and BIL) seem SO very excited for my party! :D
