halloween party 2013!

Halloween was pretty much an eternity ago (we are actually starting our Thanksgiving celebrations TODAY… oops), but I just couldn’t skip over posting the party that Lelia and I worked so hard on.

It was November 2nd, with tons of food, fun friends, and great costumes. We had a million ideas and it was hard to pick just a few, but you can see all of them on our Pinterest board here.

We made these super-adorable bat invitations…

_MG_9902 _MG_9903 We made this amazing green punch and Amanda brought a barfing pumpkin!_MG_9914There were homemade cupcakes (of course)! We had a bunch of awesome design ideas for cupcakes… but when it came down to it, I just wanted to keep it as simple and stress-free as possible. So here’s what we came up with:

Seriously._MG_9919 I’m so thankful for all these amazing people. We see a lot of friends come and go in our town, but I’m thankful for the memories we get to make while they’re here._MG_9938Straight crazy.
