Thread: Lots of fun, but NEVER AGAIN...

I will NEVER do a party the same weekend as Halloween!!!

I am EXHAUSTED. Halloween party was last night, and our last guest left at 4:30 am. We got to bed around 5 am. It will take me weeks to actually get around to getting all the inside decorations down and packed away.

And we HAVE to get the yard put away TODAY.

We had a good party tho. Great costumes, lots of fun playing "tempt your fate" and no crazy drunks this year. (the friend that came last year that was already halfway through a bottle of Jack, came sober and just did beer all night - he was buzzed, but no passing out or insanity).

Here is our most creative costume winner:



She is a pinata - and even brought a stick and would throw candy when tapped.


A couple of our friends and hubby in the middle - he had a blast scaring people by pretending to be a static prop in the yard... and then slowly walking up to them. I did the aging and painting on his coveralls, and they looked way better than any of the "officially licensed" crap fabric costumes.


The skeleton won scariest, and the flapper won most glamorous.

you guys looks so cool, sounds like alot of fun , i love the pinata idea costume very original lol

Great pictures! love the pinata costume...

Yeah, great pictures. Thanks for sharing. I was trying to figure out the costume before I read what she was. Great original idea....

great pictures! great job on hubby's coveralls, and that pinata costume and throwing candy at people when they poked her is such a creatively wicked idea, thumbs up to her Thanks for sharing your pics

Looks like a good time. I may do my party Halloween weekend next year but definitely not Friday (a work night) like I did this year!

LOL!!! Frankie's Girl, join the club! I'm ready for a loooong vacation what about you?

Looks like a great time though. Love the pinata, LOL!

Our guests stayed till 6:30 pm the next day! haha
Everyone who wasn't spending the night were gone by 4 am.
I woke up at 9 am the day after and couldnt get back to sleep.
Our overnighters from The Hague are 2 fantastic women who always pitch in and help with the cleanup the next day. Since they stayed so late yesterday, they not only helped clean up but also helped pack it all in!

Nic pics. Glad you were able to have your party and that it turned out to be a good one.

Great pics look like it was a fun party.
