More Halloween Pictures to Come

We had a party on Thursday that turned out great. I went a little hog wild. There was mega food and we are still eating left overs. I made mummy pretzels. Tootsie Pop skeletons and put a treat bag together. We also had spider cupcakes and were supposed to play all kinds of games. The games didn't all get played. It was a little chaotic for me with so many children. The head count was 17-18 and about 6-8 adults. The important thing is the kids had a blast. They played on the trampoline and swing set. I took pictures of them on the trampoline, etc. There was an orange table tennis ball they decorated with a face to look like a pumpkin, and then they used it to toss into the pumpkin stack. I misplaced the noses for the pin the nose on the pumpkin. I also made pumpkin shaped rice krispies for them to decorate the faces with candy. It never happened and I sent them home with the rice krispy treat. I even flavored them orange and food coloring of orange. The other game I got from the Family Fun magazine and added my own twist to it. It was a Spider. Pumpkin, Ghost, and Bat decorated plates and you flip a fake spider and get points assigned each plate. I made it so you could do relays. The kids had more fun just playing in the backyard together, and chowing. Even though things didn't happen as I had planned it was a whole lot of fun. I think the stuff I had would have worked better with a smaller group. I will keep the games if ever any of my family might want to use them they can.
