Halloween dress rehearsal

We went to a Halloween party at a friend's house today. The boys got to wear their costumes and had lots of fun being crazy with their friends. Randy is Boba Fett and Keith is Darth Vader. There were cobwebs all around and mummies outside. Scary birds were hanging around. There were Halloween crafts to be done. And lots of fun to be had. The kids tried pinning the wart on the witch. They munched down on worms in dirt (yes, they were gummy worms and maybe they weren't exactly in dirt, it was cookie crumbs). We sipped punch that was chilled with a severed hand (OK, it was ice shaped like a hand). And they ate spiders (fine, they weren't really spiders, they were crackers and pretzels). There was so much food I can't even remember all of it, but I can tell you that I ate lots and lots of it!! There was some really neat soda too - Jones sodas - candy corn flavor and lemon drop dead soda!
We had such a good time that we didn't even go home to make dinner for dad - but don't worry, he didn't go hungry. He found the leftover pizza in the fridge and all was just fine.
Can you believe Halloween is next Wednesday? And then October is over!! Where has this year gone? Next up... turkey day. Have you all started Christmas shopping? 59 days!!
