Happy Halloween 2009

This year we decided to host a kid-friendly Halloween Party since Campbell is still a little too young to go trick-or-treating . . . enjoy!

I cannot even begin to explain this one . . .

Yes, our princess is a ladybug.

For those of you who are observant . . . yes, that's her Christmas tu-tu

Not only does Bryan Hayes take great pictures . . . he sure makes one heck of a caramel apple!

Thanks to Beth Covington for make the spider cookies for us!

Martha's Swamp Juice.

Yes, that's 14 kids (one not pictured)

One Motley Cru!

No, that's not Eleanor . . . that's Curious George!


Again, next year, I will forgo the Halloween decorations and only put out a water table.

Crystal cheering on a little pumpkin . . . (FYI - Crystal is our early interventionist . . . we love Crystal!)

Crystal's daughter Emily

Check out this witch . . . AKA Miss Emily!

Some witches use brooms . . . this one uses a cozy coupe.

Emily's dad . . . AKA Rob from the 90's serenading us. Most requested tune from the day . . . Wheels on the Bus.

Again . . . no comment . . .

Here is Tristan-Grace using her princess walker.

And the winner of pin-the-nose on the pumpkin is Teagan

Cheap labor . . . cut the grass equals candy.

today's winning party event . . . the Cozy Coupe

Boo!!!

Okay, the party suddenly took a turn for the better . . . bring on the rain!

We think this is Campbell's first time playing in the rain!
Miss Emily and Campbell playing in the water

Again, next year, a bucket of water and cozy coupe will be the only things we supply . . . they were the hit of the party.


To conclude . . . some of the kids took the "brains bowl" and poured them all over the host . . . how rude!

Thank you all so much for coming out . . . .we had a blast and hope you did too!

Thanks again for everything- my kids talked about the party for days before the big event and even today are still talking about it! We all had a blast and are looking forward to next year's event. :)

It looks like you all had a BLAST! So sorry we weren't able to make it. By far my favorite costume was the host. Too funny.

love the pic with the big kids holding the little ones! and i'm sure robbie didn't do anything to warrant getting a bowl of brains on him, poor thing...

Thanks for including us. We had a great time!

Mom to Eleanor and Emerson said...

We had a blast too- definitely the water table and sand box every year, please :) Sorry we couldn't stay longer- the brains on Robbie looked like fun.

Avery's Mommy said...

OMG she was an adorable ladybug. What a fun little neighborhood get together!

And Ernie was CRACKING ME UP! You should rent him out to children's parties! :)
