Halloween Shindig 2009.

WHAT a party! We really enjoyed seeing our guests (all 37 of them) in costume. We even had some celebrities in our midst!

And some soldiers. At ease, guys. That little one at the bottom looks especially wily.

An emo/new wave band.
Joe Dirt.

Peace, Love, and Happiness (though Happiness had changed into his pjs).
And um, er... this.

As well as a wide variety of others.

Some of the items our buffet menu included Werewolf Meat with Caterpillar Sauce (beef fajitas with chimichurri), Mummy Toes (pigs-in-the-blanket), Fairy Brains (cut fruit), Witches Hats (cookies), and Vulture Blood (punch).

The Halloween Candy Hunt was lots of fun. Of the handful of lottery tickets hidden in the candy bags, sadly I think we only had a $1 winner.

Mmm... someone found a Witches' Hat cookie to eat and ate the chocolate part first.

Thanks to all our guests for coming!!
