As always our Fall Festival was fabulous (if I do say so myself.) It was a little more work then I was ready for on Saturday. But I knew, given past experience in entertaining, that it would all come together. And it did.
I had hoped for better pictures of the kids in their costumes but we were still getting ready when our first guests arrived. And when other kids show up, mine disappear. Usually into the backyard to play.
We had about 4/5 families here. A total of about 10 adults and 16 kids. A couple of the familes that usually come were not able to make it. But we had invited a couple of other families who had never celebrated with us before and it turned out to be such a wonderful night. Two of the families have been doing this with us for at least 5 years. One of the new familes we invited happened to know the other two families. And one family, Daddy had invited last year but were unable to make it then but were able to this year. So, it really was a great group of people who were all some how connected to each other either through hubby's work, church or both!
Kids of course don't know a stranger and immediately they all went out and played and took care of tricker treaters and ate. So patiently waiting for their turn to go trick or treating. We had a Sonny's server, a scary clown, a couple members of CMA (Christian Motorcycle Association), a couple of princesses, an Indian, Piglet, a two ninjas, two pirates, a dinosaur, and a horse riding sheriff. I think that is all. Seems so long ago ;)
After everyone left, I was so thankful that we all had felt well enough to enjoy our friends and celebrate the fall season . . .
