In 2022, after a two year hiatus, we finally got to host our Halloween Party again!!! (In 2020, we had to cancel due to Covid, and in 2021, our next door neighbor threw one instead). We were so excited to have friends from our last neighborhood join our new friends in this neighborhood.
We had the best turnout ever this year!
I loved seeing Stephanie (Cookie costume) and Brian from our last ward. It had been AGES since we'd seen them.
Here's our Fox Hollow friends--Stephanie, Scooby, Jen, and Serene.
A Pirate Minoj with his parrot Saroj (2 houses down from us).
Bobby and Jen, our Costco Couple (and one of our first friends here).
Royce as Captain America, Pre-serum. His beautiful wife Annika had to leave early, but she was dressed as Rosie the Riveter.
Kristen and David as Jack and Jill, post falling down the hill.
Jon and Scooby as Pokemon characters.
Jen as a Jet Blue Flight Attendant.
Brian and Stephanie as Cookie Monster and Cookie.
Dustin and Serene as Pirate and Rita Skeeter from Harry Potter.
And Thor and the Mightly Thor.
The next night was our ward Halloween Party. The Young Women were in charge, so I ran carnival games for most of it, but we did stop to grab a picture at the photo booth spot.
The theme was piratey, and I heard Kristi did an amazing job as MC. The kids all got some pirate treasure.
I put Brian and Rachel in charge of decorating our "trunk" for the Trunk or Treat Portion. I threw some spider stuff in the car and said, "Just make it happen." They crushed it!
Rachel loves helping with this kind of stuff. She did get less candy than the others though.
With the parties behind us, all that remained was Halloween itself.
