The Pyne Family Halloween Party 2008

I decided to start a family tradition (another one) and that's to have a Halloween dress up party. Crazy I know but we had lots of fun. I loved the fact that everyone was up for it (even Jared and Mike who hate dress up parties). But we all had some fun costumes. We played toss the candy into the pumpkin, pin the nose on the pumpkin, we decorated cookies and carved pumpkins. Our dessert was rootbeer floats in skull mugs and we had yummy brownies. Our good friends joined in on the fun. We love sharing family things with them. Mike, Teresa, Danielle, and her three kids. We all get along great. The weather was awesome for the outdoor party and we all just kicked back and enjoyed the fun. Thanks to my great kids for going along with my idea and making this something I would love to do each year. This picture shows our fun costumes we all showed up in.
We had so many cookies to decorate. We had moons, pumpkins, ghosts and cats. The kids especially loved it of course. And the cookies were very tastey.

Daxton did a great job of pinning the nose on the pumpkin. ( I have a feeling he was cheating..hahaha)


Shana the grandma is trying to find something to munch on.



I'm the tattooed biker chick with her crazy clown husband and Dax the Ninja.




Mike was trying to pin the nose on the pumpkin but got side tracked and ended up pinning it to Rogers nose. They're quite the pair!!



Makinley loved fixing up her own cookies with all the different decorations. I think she even liked tasting the frosting as you can tell from her face.



Kori is the pro in their family at decorating pumpkins. Troys just observing. Brayden is taking the pumpkin carving contest very serious. Colby even got in on the cookie decorating. He loved the frosting!! Jared took the candy toss game very serious!! hahaha. The competition was on to see who could get the most candy in the pumpkin. Our fun friends Mike and Teresa Eastman with their daughter Danielle and her three cute kids. We're glad they joined us for the Halloween fun. They're both good sports aren't they? Mike the bum and Rog the clown. They were the hit of the party.

Looks like fun! I love the clown. Usually clowns scare me but with that smile I have to laugh! I remember one year my dad dressed up as a ballerina. It was a long time ago I was really little. Does anyone have pictures of that? Elaine maybe? My parents weren't great at taking pictures!
