Halloween Party!

Happy Halloween!

Last week was our Halloween party. Since we live in Logan and it's hard for us to come down on a weekday, Cathie was nice enough to throw her Halloween party on Saturday. She throws one every year where we all dress up and have a costume contest, pumpkin carving contest, and play a couple of games. It was a lot of fun this year! Even though Ryan and I didn't win the costume or pumpkin carving contest :( I did win the guessing game, so that was fun :) Cathie was a witch who made a yummy witches brew! Ryan and I were pigs, thanks to my sister Tawnya. (She and Chaz made these fun pig costumes and were nice enough to let us borrow them) Mark was a pirate, TJ was a zombie (who actually won the costume contest) and Tyler was a transformer!After voting for the best costume and winning the guessing game :) We started to carve our pumpkins. Now, I've never used the tracing paper designs you find out of a book - (or whatever they are) I always try and be a little creative and do one from scratch. That probably explains why I've never won a pumpkin carving contest. I think I'm running out of ideas.
TJ was nice enough to help Tyler with his pumpkin, they carved a SCARY face! Then Mark was helping TJ carve a vampire! Stephanie won with her pirate pumpkin, while I didn't get one vote with my sick candy corn HA ha!Ryan got a couple votes for his flying horseman, and Mark wanted to be creative too and think of something from scratch- he got one vote for his Sponge Bob. All in all, the Halloween party was a hit! I'm so glad I have such a fun mother-in-law who is up for throwing parties whenever! It's so fun to get dressed up for Halloween and this is the only time we get to. So, thanks Cathie for such a fun Party- can't wait 'til the next one!
