Halloween Party and Fun

We held our Annual Halloween party this year on Friday, October 30th. We had a good turn out - but for some reason (to me) it just didn't have the same vibe, people did seem to have fun, but I was a bum. I'm thinking it was because I was SOOO tired. That has to be my ONE BIG complaint about being pregnant... I HATE BEING TIRED and no fun!!!! :(

Can you figure out what I am??? (Me on my chair, being tired...)

I was so proud with myself - getting all the decor up (simply this year) with some help from Dustin and even doing all the food myself (normally this is Dustin's job) AND I even got to go to lunch and just hang the afternoon before the party, but by the time 7pm rolled around and everybody started showing up....I was ready for bed! :( I just sat in the chair, hoping that everybody else would have a good time (sorry guys)!

And on a different and personal note, I'm getting kinda sick of the same ol', same ol' - I need to come up with something really different for next year. Maybe I'll really save and rent a hall and have a "dance" party with a DJ or maybe a murder mystery... Who knows...but we need a change (And PS to all those out there that think just because we're having a kid it's gonna change the party next year...NOT! - it's still gonna be adults only. Mom's and Dad's need breaks and fun too!) :) haha... Okay enough about my hum-drum....

The party did turn out nice - we had a good show of peeps and AWESOME costumes this year! :) Everybody looked awesome. We had a food contest this year and the dishes brought were so much fun!! I truly hope everybody had a fun!! (Always my biggest worry!)

Ronald McDonald, Hamburglar & our little Chicken McNugget
(My mom made us some AWESOME costumes this year! Thanks mom!!)

Okay onto the fun....here are some pictures...

Dustin made it over to McDonald's that night with Justin Hurst...but the peeps at McD's didn't seem to impressed, especially after Dustin asked the kid behind the counter "What's good here?". They did, however, have one little girl come up to them and ask Justin "Are you his agent?" pointing to Dustin... Justin and Dustin said they just laughed.

Doesn't Dustin look creepy?? haha... That has to be one of the scariest costumes ever! haha...Especially when he took off the red wig and was walking around with Tin Man (Dan Gallagher's) ax...SCARY!

Ben & Rhea Cardwell as Gomez & Moritica Addams - They didn't win for best couple costume, but they were my favorite of the night! They looked AWESOME!

Our "master" costume designer - Carol East aka "Mom" - she crashed the party for a sec to see all the costumes! I love this pic of Moshi, she's so freakin cute -trying to get "mom's" pigtails!



**COSTUME CONTEST WINNERS**

You would not believe how many votes Miss Moshi got! haha...she won two different catagories....haha...crazinesss!

SCARIEST COSTUME
JOHN FOLLETT (or as we were all calling him "Dee Snyder") haha... after winning John says, "I wasn't going for 'scary'" haha...

MOST ORIGINAL COSTUME
Anne Hill - "Facebook." Her costume cracked me up - she kept updating her status on her faux "facebook" it was so funny!

FUNNIEST COSTUME
Lizzy & Alan Skinner - the sick/sleepy duo!

BEST COUPLE COSTUME
Erin & Dan Gallagher - Dorothy & Tin Man (2nd year in a row!)

BEST OVERALL COSTUME
Tracy, Melanie & John Follett - they never seem to amaze us all!
Tracy was killing me, I wish we had a photo of her in her bad ass high heel boots, craziness - plus she did this move to make her sequins fall off her shirt so they would be all over for us to remember her...they are by far some of the best and funniest people ever and TOTALLY deserved this!!

I'll make another post of everybody else -- coming soon!

HALLOWEEN DAY

We slept in a bit and then went and saw THIS IS IT - it was actually really good. And it would have been an awesome concert to see. Too bad he died too soon. Then we headed over to City Diner for lunch...

Came home slept for a bit and then I carved our little pumpkin I was suppose to have carved for our party...hehe.. Moshi kept growling at the pumpkin, it was very strange. After I got it all done with I tried to pose Moshi with the pumpkin, but she wouldn't come near it, so all my shots of her with the pumpkin are at an angle to make her look like she is SOME WHAT close to the pumpkin! :)

I love this picture of Moshi - one, this is the closet she would get to the pumpkin and two, I like how she looks like she is grinning! My cute little chicken! :)

I had to put some grated cheese down for her to get this close, but it actually turned out cute - she looks like a little chicken pecking at her food! :)

Later that night we headed over to the church for Trunk or Treat (nice and freezing), stop by the my friend Becky's work (doesn't she look cute as Hannah Montana, especially with the liquor and smokes behind her! haha...) and then we headed over to the Hurst's for way too many treats and some of the new season of The Office. It was a nice relaxing Halloween, I wish Halloween landed on Saturday every year! :)

I'm gonna end this post with some puppy cuteness...

I'm sorry and I know I'm biased, but one puppy has to, by far, be one of the cuteness little things out there!! :) Here's Moshi in her Chicken (McNugget) costume!! Can't wait till next year, when I can dress both her and our little girl! YAY!
HAPPY (belated) HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!
