Now that I've got that stuck in your head...
Every year (meaning last year and the year before), Blue and I throw a Halloween party. This year we went with Game of Thrones, or "Medieval." As we've done in years past, there was a photo wall for pictures, goody bags for every guest, and a costume contest where everyone votes on a winner or couple's costumes and the winner wins a bottle, this year we chose vodka. Luckily we had a non-alcoholic prize too (a pumpkin carving kit and TJ's pumpkin muffin mix) because our winner was our youngest guest, my friend's 12 yr old niece. (This is an adults-only party, but she's always around and she's pretty awesome.) All of the decorations are from the Dollar Store and Amazon. We usually have about 20 guests, there's lots of snacks and dancing, and though we do have beer and wine, our only request is that you bring what you're drinking. Anyway, enough chatter. I'm going to let the pics do the talking!
The Invite:
"Halloween is coming,
prepare to raise your glasses,
Because this year we're going medieval on your asses!
Be a king or a queen or a knight or a wench,
But any costume is fine if you're still on the fence.
We'll have plenty of food and treats if that's what you're thinking,
our only request is that you bring what you're drinking!
We hope you can come, we'll see you at seven, but our Kingdom requires we shut down at 11!" (written by Blue)
