Halloween

As promised, here is what we did on our wonderful Halloween night this year.

I started the day off at Anna's baby shower. It was a Cardinal theme, so we got to wear jeans and t-shirts - which is always welcome for a shower! They served peanuts, cracker jacks, hot dogs, mini burgers and nachos. Anna and Matt got some lovely gifts for their baby. All in all it was a wonderful shower. Oh and Anna looks great!


After that, Sarah, Vicki, Katie and I met the boys over at Katie and Adam's house. We had some drinks, ate some candy, played Wii, ordered pizza . . . pretty much the usual, but it was also as much fun as usual!

Next, it was time for Matt and I to get into our costumes. I'm sure most people who are reading this, know about Matt purchasing me a dirndl during a "man weekend" this summer. If you don't, let me know and I can post about that someday. So I went as a 19th century German girl. So of course Matt had to wear lederhosen. He got quite the laugh and a little bit of mocking from the rest of our friends, but all in all it was a hit.


Our next destination was my sister's house. She and her roommate Anne threw a wonderful party.

We played flip cup and beer pong.


Erin and Anne provided a delicious pomegranate champagne, which I enjoyed a bit too much :). There was some pretty funny and some really good costumes - here are the highlights:

Austin and Anne as the Mad Hatter and White Rabbit:


Lauren as Octomom:


After Erin and Anne's party, we headed over to Boris's house. We finally got to meet Boris's dad and sister which was wonderful! They are such a great family!



We also randomly ran into Carly Bayes


We pretty much just spent the rest of the night mingling until I hit a wall and it was time to go to bed. All I can say is that I was extremely glad we "fell back" that next day, or it would have been rough!
