Halloween Festivities

It seems Autumn and more specifically October has come and gone around these parts quicker than I would have liked. I have been worse and worse at blogging. But lucky for me Instagram and the new Iphone complete with fab camera, at least for a phone its fab. And it is keeping me at least documenting my sweet busy kiddies so I'm not missing too much.
Here is our Halloween Festivities in snapshots.

Visits to Cornbelly's
Including one extra fun visit with the Lovell cousins where we ran into the Kesler cousins.

1920's Adults Night Murder Mystery Party, me and my girlfriends threw at Stacy's.
I was silent film star Zetta Zarbo and Eric was my boyfriend and mob boss Hal Sapone. I ended up being the murderer But the highlight of the evening was dressing in 1920's garb. We all agreed, they knew how to dress back then and other highlight was our other friend Aubree's amazing meal she catered for the night. She's my new favorite chef.

Fondue Feast for 5, our little family started a fondue tradition for the weekend before Halloween. Everyone helped, Ady even made super spooky Halloween place cards.
Next day we continued the good eating with pumpkin soup bowls with our tomato bisque.
Lucy now only insists on her root beer in goblets. Who is this girl?

The big night.
Ady was a adorable version of Poison Ivy, picked for her long red hair
Max was a super tough Darth Vader, picked for his mask and sword
Lucy was a darling clown, picked cuz mama only has one child who lets her pick costumes any more.
We enjoyed our tradition of trick or treating with cousins in Sandy in the Lovell's neighborhood and this was my favorite year since the weather was so fantastic.
Best Halloween.
