We had a great time at our annual Halloween Party this past weekend.  In addition to good friends, fun times, and delicious snacks it’s always great for the kids to do a test run of their costumes!

A spooky clip-art owl was my inspiration for the party.  Here are the materials I used to make the invitations and menu cards.

 

We had a lot of fun (and healthy!) snacks.

 

I tried to draw the pumpkin faces on the fruit cups, but I did not have the right type of black marker (or these fruit cups had a plastic that you can’t draw on.)  I printed out jack-o-lanterns instead.  I also put random googly eyes around the table on the black table cloth.

 

 

The Boo Bananas were such a hit last year, I made them again!

 

and some not-so-healthy snacks, too!

 

and something brewing in the crock pot cauldron for adults….

Hot Buttered Rum Apple Cider

at some point a googly eye from the cups dropped in the cider!  Someone was watching you!

No party is complete without gift bags!

Lupita our doggie fairy.

The whole gang! Olivia didn’t last too long in her costume!

We also had a great time trick-or-treating last night.  Months ago, Olivia decided she wanted to be Lucinda the good witch from Sophia the First.  Here was our attempt at recreating her costume.  Special thanks to my sister and niece who sewed the skirt!

 We hope everyone had a fabulous Halloween.  Now starts the first day of 365 days of me saying: “Halloween is over.”
