Halloween Party 2011

On October 29, 2011 we had some of the girls friends over for a Halloween party. We had a costume contest, Fear Factor bug eating table, and many Minute-to-Win-it games.

Tim set up the wax station and the kids got to make wax hands or fingers....."Freddie Kruger," Nolan, taking his turn making a wax fist....MaKenna, Delaney, Abi, and Riley....Celena attempting stilts.....Is Fear a Factor for you - there were different flavored larvettes and chocolate covered crickets.....The participants in the costume contest.....

Abi, Riley, MaKenna, Delaney, Courtlin, Lauren, Emily, Haley, Nolan, and Dylan.Silly photo time.....Bobbing for apples is always a big hit. Some were able to get the apple by its stem, others dunked their entire heads in the bucket.If there was an award for persistence, Delaney would have gotten it. She did not stop until she got an apple.Jordan does everything "just right." I am not surprised that she did not get wet.Minute to Win It card "house building" game.....Emily and Courtlin trying to make their cards stand.....Mrs. Julius was a pro....She said that she had plenty of practice growing up.Water pong...You have one minute to get as many ping pong balls, in the cups of water, as possible.Dice stacking game....Holding a popsicle stick in your mouth, balance 5 dice, one on top of the other, for at least 3 seconds.Way to go Mrs. Gentry - and with plenty of time to spare.Emily dressed as the Twister game and Abi as Strawberry Shortcake.The Halloween party was a huge success. Those kids who didn't play the games had a great time playing Cornhole, Volleyball, and Manhunt. When everyone had left, we enjoyed a quiet evening by the fire. Halloween was on the following Monday and our family went trick-or-treating with the Julius family. We took Zoey along for the adventure.
