Two posts in two days, I may be on a roll! Here's some pictures of our fun Halloween Party from Saturday night. I posted these on Facebook earlier this week, but my sis doesn't use FB, so I'm posting them all here mainly for her ;-)
My costume was from Pirates of the Caribbean. I have to say it was not that comfortable to wear, the 'off the shoulder' thing was rather frustrating and the cummerbund and belt just felt like they were riding up all the time! But it was still fun dressing up.I wanted Jason to be Jack Sparrow but the costume was $60 and we didn't want to spend that much (mine was on sale for just $29!). So he was a prisoner instead.
Ha ha ha! Poor Boo! but really, I think he loved every minute of it!
Here's pictures of the food and decor!
I was going to make a pumpkin cake but Kristen saw this snake in a magazine I had so we did this instead.
I loved the guacomole!
and the first time ever we bought dry ice - it looked so cool in the kids punch bowl.
the gorgeous Cheryl (she's an angel really!) :-)
I loved Gabby's Ninja Turtle costume!
Loved that Rene was Woody and his little boy was Buzz :-)
Angry Bird!
me and Angry Bird's Mom :-) AJ!
I set up a cookie decorating and mask making table in the dining room for the kids.
and outside I had 3 boxes of 'monster body parts' for the kids to FEEL!!!
Monster Intestines! (spaghetti and oil)
Goblin Eyeballs (grapes and olives)
Zombie Brains! (oatmeal and oil, with pumpkin guts underneath!!)
Cheryl has more fun pictures on her camera (more importantly, ones with me and her together, that I haven't seen yet). Hopefully I can share them later. We certainly had an awesome night and I'd seriously consider doing it all again next year :-)

Great costumes! I cracked up at the two prisoners...ha ha so funny! Your snacks were so festive and cool! I loved the pumpkin throwing up....very clever and so funny!
Glad you had a fun party and a nice Halloween! :)
Hi Denise! What fun! You are lucky to have such a great neighborhood! I must say Boo having matching stripes made the costumes! You made a cute pirate wench! :) The Halloween feast was great and how clever with the cupcake snake! (((Hugz)))
Looks like a great party. Love the snake and Boo looks adorable.
Looks like fun was had by all! Your husband and doggie made me laugh out loud. My husband asked me what in the world I was laughing at! He didn't realize blogging could be so much fun. Carla
wow, you lot really go to town! I should show pics from Humbugs party, but I didn't take many. Just a few from outside, when the kids were let loose with face paint and decorated Bill's face! I took away the black paint and gave them the pastel colours - easier to wash off!
your 'disgusting' food is brilliant. Love the guacamole presentation! eeww!
