Halloween

Well, we had a Halloween Party again this year. It's looking like that is going to be our little tradition, since this is the 3rd one in a row. It's fun to remember the day we got engaged-- I can't believe it's already been a year! My aunt and uncle were so kind and let us have it in their awesome house. We had about 14 friends come for it. We made all the food (which I won't do in the future). We had pumpkin cookies (they were the favorite and were gone within about an hour), oreo pops, vampire teeth (apples and peanut butter), spare-parts salad (grapes), cupcakes (that were left over from the halloween carnival at my work), chex mix, cookie monsters (nutter butters dipped in white chocolate), homemade root-beer and pizza from Papa Murphy's.  I'm so sad I was not good about taking pictures at all this day.

Everyone...
More friends that showed up a little late.

The food... half eaten

Games: musical pumpkins
Witch Pitch- try to throw candy corn into each bucket. (This is way harder than it looks)
Pumpkin balloon darts: My uncle made this awesome wood pumpkin, we pinned balloons on it and everyone got a turn throwing darts at it and trying to pop the balloons.
Basketball in the gym.
Thanks to everyone that came and made it a fun time and thanks to Annie and Trace for letting us use their house and games! Looking forward to next year already.
