I've always wanted to throw a
Halloween Costume Party.
{I just love dressing up & being someone else for a day!}
Hunny & I just hosted a party & we
invited a few of our favorite couples. We had so much fun.
-These were the decorations over the buffet table-
The evening included good food, games & {of course}
AWESOME COSTUMES!
Here are a few that knocked my socks off. . .
And Hunny & I were . . .
A lot of our guests brought their
favorite hors d'oeuvres & the food was SO delicious!
{Since we weren't having a "sit down dinner",
I planned for things you could eat without a fork.}
For the drinks, we enjoyed telling our guests to
"pick your poison"!
We purchased some colorful syrups from
World Market & the grocery store for the vials.
{My girl Martha Stewart hooked me up with the plastic vials which came with the labels.}
We put some club soda & ice in a pitcher &
everyone mixed their own {non-alcoholic} drink.
What are you going to be for Halloween?

Wow! You folks went ALL OUT with your costumes. Very inspirational. I love the gender flip of little red and the wolf; and Mary and Burt is just so precious. I still don't know what we're doing in terms of costumes.... Eek!

P.S. You look too young to be a grandmother! I thought you were in your twenties when I saw your photo. I think you've got some great genes or a special secret I'd love to learn.... ;-)
Darling costumes. Still laughing over little red and the wolf! Too smart! And your food spread... MMMMMMMM. I do believe that your girl Martha delivered with those vials; those are great! xoxo jules
ReplyDeleteps... you're the cutest Mary Poppins EVER!
Thanks so much, darling Jules. It was SO much fun to be Mary Poppins. I carried around a measuring tape - measuring people to see if they were "practically perfect in every way" {you sure are!}.
DeleteWarmly, Michelle
