Pinteresting Party Ideas

{Originally Posted at Nichole's blog Life as a Newlywed!}

So while Nichole is off drinking fancy cocktails on the beach on her cruise, the rest of us are stuck here counting down the days until our next vacations! Or, if you're like me, counting down the next time you can actually consume an alcoholic beverage...




... I'm Krystal and I blog over here. I've known Nichole since I was about 16 but we didn't really connect until a year or so ago (Am I right?! LOL). We always were doing the same things--baseball, bars, movies--but never got our acts together to hang out! Anyway, better later than never! ;) Nichole has been such a faithful blogger since starting up recently, and I'm so proud of her!

Since Nichole is off celebrating under the sun, I decided to compile some adult party ideas (complete with beverages!) for us regular folk to drool over. And, since I can't have a cocktail for quite a long time (Hello, pregnancy!), this post might be a little heavy on the beverages... ;D






Skinny Beer-Ritas. They claim not to pack on the pounds.


Your next party MUST:




Gummy shot glasses. Just drink...and eat!






Make ice cubs out of Kool-Aid and add to whatever beverage you might be drinking...






Very cute party idea... Washi tape around plastic glasses






Keep the booze cold -- freeze balloons!






A great gift for any party hostess...


Another ice cube trick:




Freeze lemons, blueberries, mint, etc. Perfect drink complements!


Don't forget about your furry friends while you're having your next backyard get together:




How awesome is that? I know that my dogs would LOVE it. They go wild over ice.


And, just remember...




Word.

Oh my gosh, I tried the gummy shotglasses once...and nearly choked! Those things are THICK, like so thick you can hardly bite through them. Perhaps better in theory than in practice haha!
The beer-itas sound tasty. I'm always up for a low-cal margarita suggestion :)
