Halloween Party

I know it was way too early to have a Halloween party, but that didn't stop 25 or so of us from having a blast last Monday. I was lucky that so many people contributed. I hardly had to do anything. I baked breadsticks, sent some emails, made an invitation, asked people if they were coming, asked people to do things, and ordered people around. Quite simple. I didn't do the decorations, I didn't bring the games, I didn't buy the pumpkins, etc.

Some things that made me smile:

• The sisters dressed up as each other.
• During pumpkin carving I realized we could bake the seeds and it worked out quite well.
• Benni came under a sheet with two holes cut into it, just like I suggested.
• Watching people try to eat hanging donuts is hilarious.
• So is apple bobbing.
• People dressed in Halloween costumes and wielding knives for pumpkin carving can be pretty creepy.
• Christina did an awesome job with the lighting. It was exactly what I'd imagined. Dark.
• I had Halloween music playing from the two computers using a YouTube play list I made.

Like I said, a blast.
