Happy Halloween!

FYI This is the second post I have written today, read Kory's Birthday post below!

We had a blast celebrating Halloween!  Our dear friends did an amazing job planning the Halloween party, and we had a ball hosting is at our place!  I borrowed some great decorations from my Aunt Laura.  We put a spider web with a spider in the entrance.  We had purple lights strung across our family room and some orange light on the table.  We had spiders, a ghost, a skeleton, a witch, and pumpkins on display.  Then some super cute orange vases, and paper plates to really set the Halloween spirit.  I wish I had better pictures to demonstrate the atmosphere, but you'll just have to trust that it was awesome!  There were over 25 people in attendance, and everyone brought something yummy to share.  Cafe Rio style sweet pork salads/burritos were served, along with some amazing desserts!  We spent most of the time socializing and eating.  Then we got the whole group together to play a game.  Kory and I are always down for a good party, and we are so glad that we celebrated Halloween this way!  We can't wait until we live in a bigger place and can host even bigger parties with ALL of our friends!


Dinner was fabulous, and so were the desserts.  But, I was just so impressed with Stephanie's festive treats.  She's never done this before, look how cute they turned out!




We had a really great surprise, Kelli came over with the two cutest trick-or-treaters ever!  Hayden decided to eat his Halloween cupcake under the table since all of the people around made it kind of chaotic.  Some of the boys that were at our party had fun playing around with Hayden and Roman, and stuck them up on the fridge to be silly, haha.




The rest of our pics are random guest shots.  I know a some people were missed in the pics, but I'm glad to have what I do!  We had such a blast.
