Some of the "Spooks" that attended our Halloween Party

Our little lion is Soren Brown

Nyah and Addie Brown both have Rapunzel dresses from the movie, "Tangled" that I had made. Although Nyah is wearing a wig, that is Addie's own hair!

This is Marcus Harding beneath the mask and coverings.  I made the black tunic for him but he designed and made the amazing mask and gloves from foam and duck tape.  It's very impressive!

Caleb Harding looking solemn in his handsome costume

Mitchell Harding looking for all the world like a real astronaut

Drake Hansen - and I'll bet you wouldn't know what he is but I was informed he is a Nyan Cat.  It's an Internet neme.  He is wearing a poptart and flies through the air trailing a rainbow.  I made the sweat suit for his birthday but Liz came up with all the rest of the costume.

And here is Liz wearing Drake's Dr. Who coat that I helped him make.

This cute couple are Max and Stephanie Outsen - dressed as Hansel and Gretel.  I was pleased to make Stephanie's dress from things I had here at home.

Kasen Brown is a combination of scary things and looks quite impressive

Shelby Hansen is wearing the Cora costume from one of the TV shows that she likes.  I'm a bit illiterate in that regard so can't tell you for sure which series, but it is an impressive costume - another one I made.

And doesn't Sam Brown make a cute Charley Brown?

And last of all is sweet little Eve Harding dressed as a cat.

Halloween 2014

Halloween with all its fun and frustrations has come and gone once again.

As usual, we had a fun family gathering that involved most of last week to get ready for.

Following are some of the pictures of  foods and fun from this year's party. The pictures of the food are self explanatory.  Though this year I stayed with the fun - not scary foods for the benefit of some of my grandchildren.

Addie really got into the party planning this year and she found lots of things she wanted to make.  Marenda and Addie furnished this fun treat.

Deren requested that Liz make Chili for this year and she came up with some cute ghost biscuits to go with the delicious chili.

This was another of  Marenda and Addie's contributions. Not only do they look great but they were very tasty

The ghostly pops were also contributed by Marenda and Addie.  The bananas were covered with white chocolate and chocolate chips for eyes.

Max, Stephanie and Shelby went to our decorated garage and judged the Jack-o-lantern the children had brought

When we decorated, Addie came up and helped. She came up with the giant spider walking on the ceiling and the pillow case ghosts.

We had some very creative Jack-o-lanterns this year

One of our games was to eat the donuts while they hung from a string without the use of hands.  Drake is doing a good job of getting his

We can't have a party without games so here are some of the grandchildren playing Left, Center, Right. Starting left and going around the table to the lefty we have Eve Harding, Kasen Brown, Marcus Harding (hiding his face), Drake Hansen, Caleb Harding, Mitchell Harding (with the candy bowl) and Addie Brown
