Planning food for DH's party-any input?

My DH is having a paintball party this weekend at his parents house. I'm guessing between 20-30 people.

For appetizers: Nachos-with all the toppings, a fruit bowl (I have one for every party), turkey tortilla roll ups, and cream cheese stuffed mushroom wrapped in bacon.

For dinner: DH has requested shrimp and steak kabobs and I'm trying to think what would go best with it. I was thinking corn on the cob, baked beans, baked potatoes or potato salad, and pasta salad. 

And then of course cake and ice cream of his choosing.

Should I omit something or add another thing? I'm 20 weeks pregnant right now and this is making me hungry. :)

    I'm not pregnant but this is making me hungry too, I think it sounds awesome! I'd be tempted to do baked potatoes with all the fixin's but that's mainly because I love them. My second choice would be potato salad and pasta salad.

    @Momin2013... I absolutely love baked potatoes when I'm not pregnant. But I know there are going to be a ton of hungry guys (after running around all day shooting each other) and I think that is more filling/appetizing than "salad" for them :)

    Agreed. What man doesn't love steak and a baked potato? :)

    @Momin2013 Exactly! My husband requested it. :)

    @CabbageCabbage A salad would be a good idea as well, super easy too! And I may end up doing something easier like scalloped potatoes or we might have to use a separate grill for baked potatoes. The foil packets sound so delicious right now!
