Party Season

Though I'm still mourning the loss of BBQ season, I have to admit that I've had a blast with, and am really excited for the onset of PARTY SEASON!!! This is the time of year where we get together and celebrate virtually EVERYTHING! Harvest, friends, all we're gratfeul for, food, costumes, and we top it all off with the celebration of Christ's birth all through December! How fun!

Here in Moscow, we really like to find excuses to have a good party, and we've been very successful so far, and we've only just begun! Last week, we had an October Birthdays Party where we celebrated Alyssa, Brooke, and Nicole's birthdays. This was a girls-only party, which is sometimes very nice to have some good ol' girls time.

The second party was 2 days later, where we had a Halloween Party! That was for everyone, and it was so fun to see everyone's creativity in their costumes! My favorite was the naylor family, who came as the "Jeffs" family. I hadn't finished the kids' Halloween costumes at the time, so we got a little creative with them. Josten and Breck went as wounded soldiers, Sienna was a "flower child" and I was a black widow. VERY makeshift for my costume! We were all asked to bring a fun and scary halloween dish. There were some great ones from deviled eyes, to homemade bat and pumpkin chips, to mummy faces appitizers. I brought a "graveyard" with a creepy hand sticking up out of the dirt! They had fun activities for the kids, and some goos socializing for the parents!

Happy Party Season everyone!
