Happy Halloween!

What an awesome Halloween Party! First of all, we got a killer deal at Goodwill on everyone's costumes this year. We found a Tinker Bell costume for Summer for $3, so we decided to go as Tinker Bell, Peter Pan (Britt), and Cap'n Hook (Rhett). We improvised on the Peter Pan and Hook costumes: Rhett cut and sewed (about thirty minutes before the party started) to get everything ready. He cut the extra off Peter Pan's hat and then sewed it back up, and then he used a black felt purse for his own hat (we just pinned the skull and cross bones onto it). 

We played lots of games and ate lots of yummy food. Loved the spider crackers, the mummy dogs, the eyeball cupcakes, the homemade root-beer, and the extremely unhealthy but deliciously irresistible caramel popcorn. The first game we played was the flour game, and we both lucked out and had to dig the starburst out of the pile of flour. Rhett kissed Summer afterward, so she even got in on the flour too!

Those were some creative costumes. At least you go into the spirit. We just dressed Austyn up as a pumpkin. Summer looks way cute in her costume. Rhett I didn't know that you could sew. That is awesome.
