EEEEP! I LOVE Halloween and I LOVE our party! Every year the costumes just keep getting better and better! In honor of it being the 5th year, we decided to award costume prizes! We weren’t super organized on how we were going to do this but I mention below who the winners are next to their picture!
This year we had a new house to decorate and we hosted our first major party in the house. I was a little nervous about how it would all come together, but it turns out this house is great for big parties!
One of my favorite parts was the fact that we have a mantle now to decorate! Last year I had it on my list to print out and frame all of our past Halloween costume pictures but I never did. This year though I got on the ball and LOVE how this turned out!!!
Take a picture of me!!!!
And thanks to Pinterest, we created this Frankenstein window decoration after school one day!
The other cool thing was that we had an actual bar to put the “chili bar” on! And it was up high enough the littles couldn’t touch the hot pots!
The dining room, the place where all the little goblin grub was and where people could actually sit down to eat this year!
The desert table: mini chocolate chip pumpkin muffins, peanut butter and chocolate rice krispie treats and witches hats!
My little helpers, good fine motor skill activity, unwrapping all the hershey kisses for the witches hats!
Who doesn’t love a drink bar with FUN straws?
And the usual goody bags with mini play-doh cans, fangs and free frosty coupons!
Now on to the costumes!!! In a galaxy far, far away….
Darth Vader, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Yoda, and Boba Fett.
But as he proclaimed for days and days and eventually that day “I NOT Baby Yoda!!!”

The Von Trapp Family!!!! And Vader-Man!
And the lame award goes to someone who actually later completely redeemed himself at the grown-ups after party! A Before and After! That is a working keg tap ladies and gentlemen! Yes, I tried it out.
I was busy running around talking to people, checking on food, taking pictures etc that I never even made it out on to the backyard until way late when people started to leave, so this is the only picture I have of any of the kids in the backyard. I heard at one point it was more like a scene out of Lord of the Flies. Considering their was 130 RSVP’s 67 adults to 63 kids, I don’t doubt it was!
And before Princess Leia headed out for another party, she stopped to read Yoda-Spiderman “The Lakes Boys Book”!
And I have to share a few of the awesome costumes from the grown-up party too because they are just too good not to share!
