Grandma Bell has a great tradition of throwing an awesome Halloween Party every year--so since she and Phil and Lisa were here this last weekend we had to keep the tradition going. Blaine and I have never really had costumes to dress up in--but this year I made us costumes. They will probably be our costumes for the rest of our lives. The party involves three main events:
1. Pin the Tie on the Ghost
2. Great Neptune of the Sea--where you ask "Great Neptune" behind the sheet for a prize and you put your fishing line over and he gives you a prize.
3. The Ghost Cake--which is a cake with a ghost with real flaming eyes--its a big hit.
We had so much fun! Even better to have the Moore's here with us to celebrate!!
"The Big Bad Wolf" and "Little Red Riding Hood"
All the kids ready to party (We had to put Ellie to bed because she was having a melt down she was so tired.)
