The Halloween party on Saturday was a lot of fun, you should read Bae’s entry because she has pictures.
We spent the day cleaning the house and gettings things ready for the party, then carved our pumpkins. By 5 we were ready for guests, and got our costumes on. Around 6 and showed up with little in tow. was wearing an adorable lion costume made by ‘s mother. Around 6:30 and came by. We all filed into the TV room to play Tv edition Scene It?
Playing Scene It? was fun, even though I was terrible at it. Amazing how little popular TV I’ve watched in my life, I was absolutely ignorant about so many things that others took to be obvious. We played this all through the evening, taking breaks for pizza and stuff. dropped by for about an hour before he was called back to work (stupid dumb being on call!), but it was nice that he came by, things just wouldn’t be the same if he didn’t.
At some point we decided to make popcorn. We don’t have a microwave, so and picked up a popcorn popper for us (so sweet!), which turned out to be more fun than it should have been. I don’t know who designed it, but it has a horrible tendancy to throw popcorn all over the kitchen rather than getting it in the bowl. A napkin to guide it into the bowl will fix this problem, but it was still pretty funny. I’ll have to practice with it by making more popcorn ;) At least it’s healthy because it doesn’t have butter and all the junk JiffyPop stove top popcorn has.
and came by too – with cupcakes! makes the most amazingly tastey cupcakes, and she decorated every one. Such talent! I don’t think I’ve ever done anything like that %) She also brought us a gift of some soap she had made – apple soap shaped like a skull, yay so cool!
Late in the evening our neighbors from across the street came by to see if we were interested in going to their party. Michael did the neighborly thing and accepted the invite, joined him, but I stayed back with our own party and enjoyed some Simpson Halloween episodes with everyone.
I didn’t end up “drinking” much, the guys had beer, but I was perfectly content with my Cherry Pepsi. I ate so much pizza and chips though, and probably 3-4 cupcakes.
Michael and came back from the neighbor’s place around midnight so Michael could do his radio show. We spent the rest of the evening watching movies and talking. It was much fun! People left shortly after 2AM.
Sunday was uber lazy day. I don’t think I got anything acomplished. Instead we enjoyed the cool fall weather by snuggling on the couch with a big blanket and some horror movies. It was a good day.
Tonight we’re headed to Malvern for the Dia de Los Muertos celebration, should be fun.
