The AdULt HaLLoWeeN PaRtY

This is a party that I look forward to all year long! Our friends the Evans sure do know how to throw a great bash. Everything was fantastic from the decorations to the music to the yummy food everyone brought...couldn't have been better. In fact, I think this was the best yet. There were some pretty great costumes this year. what a fun night indeed!

Travis was a little boy who lost his tooth, Collin is the Tooth & Steph is the Tooth Fairy
She made the tooth costume & it turned out so dang cute!

So I didn't even recognize Denyse. She had on this black wig, tons of bronzer, dark eyebrows & huge lips. She wouldn't speak English & only spoke a little broken Spanish. Ryan wasn't there & we could not figure out what was going on. Well when introductions started he came down with a tub around him. He was a missing Miner & she was his Mistress waiting for him! Too funny!

Taylor & Laney were a French Kiss "oui oui!"
{and yes, they really did french kiss in front of all of us}

Crescent & Dave as Rapunzel & Prince Charming
I love that Dave is holding on to her golden locks!

Scott & Chanda as Tiger Woods & Elin Nordegren
Golf clubs & all!

Kristie & Anthony as Swimmers
She made her flesh unitard! Way to be girl!

Levi & Carolyn as a Sugar Daddy & Gold Digger
They ended up winning 'most expensive' prize. tee-hee!

Bron & Megan as Peter Pan & Wendy
There little Lilly was Tinkerbell. So cute!

Lawrence & Andrea as Pirates
Arrrrg!

Creed & Tiffany as a Mad Scientist & his Assistant/Experiment
Notice the baby limbs coming out of her belly, yuck!

Natalie & Adrian as Ammon & one of King Lamoni's sheep.
These too are so creative every year!

Ryan & Rachel as Chinese folk.
Love the facial hair!

And here we are as Craig & Arianna, the SNL Spartan Cheerleaders.
We have been wanting to do this costume for awhile now & this was the year. I even made our sweaters! I think they turned out pretty darn good. We had a blast being silly & making fools of ourselves. But I must say we brought a lot of laughs to the party too. :)



Some of the yummy treats of the evening!

Just hanging out & having fun!

Laney & Natalie

This was a costume party so of coarse there were prizes to be given for different categories. Everyone was graciously accepting their delicious carmel/chocolate covered apples, but when Doug & I won for the funniest costume we just couldn't contain ourselves. It was only appropriate to perform the 'Perfect Cheer'!



Megan got some pretty good shots of us doing our thing that night.

And it wouldn't be complete without the traditional donut eating contest. Here are Lawrence, Scott & Ryan going at it. Lawrence won the boys round.

Next up were the ladies. Here are Denyse & Kristie getting ready!

Look at them go! They were all over the place. It was so funny! Andrea won the girls round. The Garrett's must eat a lot of donuts to be that good. :)

A few of us stuck around later than the rest. Steph had some kareoke all set up so we couldn't resist. Here are Doug & Lawrence jammin out!



Seriously the best Halloween Party ever! Now...what to be for next year? ;)
