Rockin' Hallween Party

Steve and I hosted our annual Oliver Halloween party. We had Sloppy Joes, Mummy Dogs, Potato Skins (that were a total hit), Veggies & dip, Brain Jello, Chips, Pop, Sugar Cookies, Cupcakes, Chocolate/Carmel Popcorn, Banana Bread, and other treats. Everyone helped provide food - thanks guys!

We ate, mingled, and just hung out

We had Rock Band in the garage (that I slaved away cleaning and organizing all day.) People filtered in and out and we all took turns playing. There was one point where almost all of us were in the garage and the song that was playing was "Hands Down" by Dashboard Confessional. We were all singing so loud, it was a blast! I wish we would have recorded cause I'm sure we sounded awesome!

This is the whole group. We had to prop our cameras up on a ladder cause our close neighbors weren't home to come take pictures for us. A party with the Olivers isn't a party without a photo shoot.

Melanie brought a fun craft for the girls to do. Since it's Nov.1, she thought it would be fun to make "Thankful books." So we decorated little notebooks with paper, stamps, and stickers. Every day in November we're supposed to write down something we're thankful for. I thought it was a way cute idea and they didn't take long to make. Thanks Mel!

Dad and Rich sure partied hard-they wore themselves right out!
