20th Anniversary Halloween Party

Another successful party. Over 100+ guests in attendance. One of the favorite areas in the garage was the wand crafting station. Josie agreed to pose for me prior to the party.

There was no shortage of food.

The garage was packed most of the evening.

As always, our face painter (and costume designer) did fabulous job.




As promised, I shot a video of the interior and exterior decor.



Have a HAPPY Halloween!

XOXO

    Wow! I'm sort of speechless. Your girls have to think you are the coolest parents ever for going all out for Halloween (even though you were doing it before they came along). Your video is amazing and puts is all together for us. Glad everyone had a great time.

    fun times! everything looks fantastic. I cant get over the amount of decorations! so now what girlfriend? I bet your ready for a trip to the bahamas or something so you can relax!! I suppose a hot bath and a few candles and a cup of tea might be nice if not the trip! how long do the decorations stay up? Im already fretting about putting all mine away... lol.. was thinking about leaving them up and going right to christmas! I dont have a lot of thanksgiving stuff. decorating is so much work.. but I love it!
    relax now Kim!
