Music and Hauntings....

Well, more like I GOT MY CLARINET AND IM SO EXCITED!!!!...and we had our Ward Halloween Party, which was surprisingly really, really fun, very well planned, and everyone that came had a very creative costume!  I'm not even exaggerating.  

Thats me on the left...that wig is ridiculous (and four bucks from Savers) but just try to guess what I am...and then there's Kleresa in the middle (her mom made that flapper costume...it was really, really cute!  She looks gorgeous!)  and Shantel on the right in the red skirt.  (Can you guess who they are??)  

(caution...some graphic images below!)

(somehow this doesn't surprise me coming from Brett..ha)

It was supposed to be a "date" activity, which I think was a great idea, because we all had our costumes in pairs.  There was little bo beep and her sheep, Sid from Toy Story and a mangled toy, two teddy bears, a pair of angels, two crayons of different colors, two hippies with home made tye-died outfits from head to foot,  an "anti-prohibitionist" and his girl...I could go on!  It was amazing. In order to choose a date, we did not do the traditional "will you go to the dance with me" thing, oh no.  The guys put a tie in a giant bucket, and the Activities Committee went around with the bucket and had the girls pick an anonymous tie.  And that was the young man we paired up with.  Creative! 

The party turned into a huge dance, and we were all squished into the corner of the room dancing our little hearts out. I wished my date enjoyed dancing, but he didn't, and so he just sat on the couch with another guy who didn't like dancing while a bunch of people stood up and played.  I felt kind of bad for leaving him there, sorry Jordan.....I think he was happy to go when I said I had to get up early...

We created graham-cracker houses with neon frosting and candy and graham crackers, we colored spooky-ish halloween pictures, and ate some delicious food...shhh dont tell Carriage Cove.....

Anyway, I hope you all are having a great Halloween and enjoying all the fun.  :)  May you rest in peace tonight...
