So my Halloween party was last night and it was nuts! In a good way of course.

I just moved into a new apartment and was somewhat concerned about occupancy and noise, bothering neighbors etc. but I soon found out that my apartments are virtually sound proof, lol. I'm sure my downstairs neighbors probably heard a few feet but the party started and ended early. Anyway, it was clown/carnival themed, people brought munchies and drinks and while it was loud from all the people chatting everyone had an awesome time. People even brought me gifts, ha.

I had trivia, which everyone said was really hard, haha, I revealed the theme for next years party, held a costume contest, and played "Guess How Many Candy Corns Are In The Jar." My roommate got it within one candy corn!

I was worried about space, and while a TON of people showed up, no one seemed to mind. People brought deviled eggs, bacon wrapped stuffed dates, deli roll-ups, fast food, queso, veggies and fruit, chips and salsa I made cupcakes and popcorn and tons of beer and liquor, haha. My friend managed to get my boyfriend drunk which never happens and boyfriend passed out on the couch and ended up on the floor! HAHAHAHA. It was so funny.

People had cute costumes and said I looked freaky. The Milk and Cookies costume won first prize, my roommate was 2nd with her Old Gregg, other costumes included Weird Al, The Dude, mime twins, several clowns, GoGo from Kill Bill, one armed carnie, Tina from Bob's Burgers, killer from The Strangers, Taylor Swift, Doctor Who Character, Anna Nicole Smith, Deadpool, gypsy and pirate and a few non-dressed up people which didn't matter!

So far my best party yet, and now I'm seriously thinking and planning next years in my head already! It's going to be Insane Asylum!

Wish my friends on Halloween Forum could have been there!! It was amazing

I didn't have a chance to take many photos since I was so busy playing hostess, but here is my roommate as Old Gregg and I am the bloody clown, ha.

Sounds like your party was a blast! My pirate questions at my party were too hard too. Too bad there are no more pics? Maybe your friends took some. Would love to see your decor...

Sounds like a great time-- and some impressively creative costumes, too! I always wind up too busy to take as many pictures as I want, too.

Would love to see the gypsy and more photos of décor, too.

Unfortunately, I didn't have time to take a single picture. Guess I should have made a better effort. Sorry

Though here is one of me with my boyfriend as The Dude.

And here is my hallway.

I'm so glad your party last night turned out good. We had ours last night as well and it was a carnevil theme too. What makes it even funnier me telling you that is Me and my friend decided last night after our party that our next years theme was going to be bloody asylum! We have some psychic vibe that we don't even know about. lol We should definitely bounce ideas off of each other!!! Good luck with your 2015 planning!

Oooooh crazy!!! Yeah, I'm online right now putting stuff on my wish list for next year, hahahaha. We should keep in touch for sure!

Creepiest picture of my costume that a friend of mine took of me, ha.

Love the pics, especially that last one! "I'm cute with a touch of creepy... especially after I fry your skin, make a musical instrument out of your bones, and make balloon animals out of your internal organs for the neighborhood kids."

Though we're not really doing anything this year I'm building my costume for next year. Been planning it for years. I wish we could be there for your Insane Asylum party (I have a thing for them, nothing weird) however for me to fit in the insane asylum would have to be set in a dystopian, mixed tech, cybernetics future...

We have the guess how many candy corns in the jar going on for us team members at work... a gallon jar!

I bet I could name that Doctor Who character! Lole! I've seen every episode!

Soung like a great party and everyone had fun. I know what you mean about pictures, it seems I never get enough of them once the party is started since I am always re-filling all the food stuff. I hope I do better at this year's party.

I found this picture of my friend as Taylor Swift and her boyfriend as a killer from The Strangers with my dining room in the background!
