Halloween Party

So here's the story of the Halloween Party...

Every year the ward has a big old Halloween Party, and this year the primary was in charge. It was also going to be a chili cookoff, and we expected everyone to come. So, for two months me and my counselors and secretary plotted and planned. A million emails were sent, a ton of things were purchased, and we had it scheduled right down to the minute. It was going to be a kickin' party.

And then it snowed, and the party was canceled.

I was initially devastated, as was my presidency, there may have been tears. But in hindsight, I would have been even more sick had someone actually been harmed due to the bad roads. Oh well.

Luckily, we ended up having a fantastic time thanks to Tiff and her last minute party planning. She invited us as well as some other neighbors over to eat all the chili we'd prepared and show off our costumes. Later in the night, the kids came down the hall to our place to do the craft that they would have done at the church party. All's well that ends well.





How freaking cute are they? I loved this idea!
Jayda made Skyler a parachute for his pilot's costume. Loved it.
My witch and my pilot. One day we might actually coordinate costumes, but hey, they both fly right?
