Halloween party?
Yes please!
I had big plans for making costumes of the century, but of course I ran out of time so instead I went to Target and got Chris a pumpkin shirt and got myself a shirt that said "I don't do costumes." However, when I tried the shirt on at home it was too small so I had to think of something else, stat! I decided to go with a "hippie" theme and bedazzled myself in bright florals, jewelry, a headband, and I even die cut a heart-shaped peace sign from gold cardstock. See, I did put in a li'l effort!
This was our first time leaving the kids with a babysitter. Even though the party started at 7 we decided to go at 8 so that both babies would be asleep and make for an easy night. And we were off to the Dead Rose Cottage - creepy!
I've been pretty good about cutting back on candy. But baked goods are a whole different story... Who can resist pumpkin cookies?!
It was fun to see everyone's costumes.
Lots of Romney's in the house!
Peace. Love. Happiness.
The music was blaring thanks to our resident DJ who's in our ward.
I really don't dance, it's quite frightening if I try, so I opted to be the photographer and watch everyone party hardy.
Eventually we played a game of Limbo!
Veronica won - even in her "fragile" state! So excited for her and her growing family!
There was a BYU basketball game on so lots of the guys sneakily crept into the living room to watch. Pretty sure this move was instigated by my hubby... See, look how guilty he looks...
Then we sang a few rounds of karaoke. And then the cops came and shut us down. Ha. Apparently our music was too loud. I'm 2 for 2 for parties being torched by cops. We're such a crazy bunch :)
Good times, lots of laughs, memories made!

I'm surprised you didn't get a picture of the cops! lol Love the picture of Chris on the couch caught redhanded with the TV remote too! lol waving hi from the windy hills of North Carolina :)
ReplyDeleteOh! I wanted to go to so bad, I just couldn't convince Dan, haha! Although, maybe if he had known BYU basketball was a possibility I could have convinced him! It looks like it was a blast and I love that the po-po's came and shut it down. Mormons party hard!
