Welcome to Our Blog!: An Old Fashion Halloween Party

When I think about Halloween, I think of the movie Hocus Pocus and how Halloween is really a celebration. The weather is cooler, trick or treaters, and traditional Halloween parties.. That is my ideal Halloween! I never been to a traditional Halloween party where it's at a house full of decorations, scary looking food, everyone dressed up, and games like bobbing for apples. I really wanted to go to something like this. I was determined! Not the "excuse to get drunk, wear lingerie college type with little to no food party " I'm talking about the REAL Halloween spirit party with friends and family. This year I was really gung ho about it. Perhaps it was because we didn't do anything for the passed few years. So when our friends Mike and Michelle were willing to throw one at their house, I got really excited! The best part was that they were just as excited, if not more excited to host it and doing it the old school way also. They were really creative to. ;)

The turn out was better than expected! Though we didn't do bobbing for apples but we did have costume contests and raffle prizes and a lot of food and decorations! Oh and of course alcohol! Oliver definitely had a good time but I won't go into detail with that LOL. One thing I do have to say is that alcohol is definitely confidence juice.. because I was dancing everywhere and didn't think twice about how I looked. I was trying to sweat off the alcohol I consumed! I didn't want to miss the party that we've been planning for 2 months. I can say we definitely had a REAL Halloween party and we got a lot of compliments on how it was! Almost everyone who came was in a costume and looked great and we had a lot of people show up! I would have to say at least 60 people. Mike, Michelle, Marie and I had a great time planning this. It's bittersweet because it's over but it was so much fun and we're happy to know it was a success. Thank you again Mike and Michelle for having it at your house! You guys are awesome and great hosts. Definitely was a good time! Possibility next year? ;)
