Rather than just have a BBQ and some drinks he suggested it would be fun to also make it special and put some decorations up, grab a new game none of us have played, or even ust make up some party style desserts.
As children we used to love fancy birthday cakes, cookies with icing faces, in fact it would be kinda awesome to mix a regular BBq with a kids birthday party, except without the kids.
He wants me to make up cherry crunch to dip apples on a stick into, I thought getting a big tub and filling it with water then bobbing for apples would be a great laugh and a great photo opportunity.
I said that when I was young I really used to enjoy trick or treating, and why don't we mix in some halloween games, after all the BBQ will probably keep going till after dark anyway.
Our friends are the kind of people who like to have a great conversation over a glass of wine and also enjoy the odd surprise. This house-warming party might end up being the best we've ever had.
