Decorated the hall for a Halloween Party

 Today October 26, 2012 - I had a great day . First it started out that my husband and I had to go pay rent and our $14.50 electric bill (Not bad not bad! For a start on the electric bill anyways). Then the rest of the day I went over to our mobile home and RV park Rec hall. A bunch of us ladies got together and decorated the rec hall for a Halloween Party that we are going to have tomorrow night. I got nominated to be the spider web lady, ahhhh well they loved my work with the spider webs so much, so I did all of them except a few. The women that is running the show Chucky is her name, well we are the same, we LOVE Halloween! I can't wait to see what her costume is tomorrow night and she can't wait to see ours too! There was 50 people that signed up for this Halloween Party. We are all to bring finger foods.

What am I going to bring? I got a great recipe off of Pinterest ( If you are not signed up for Pinterest, boy you are missing something great.) Ok here is what I am going to bring and the link for the recipe too.
SAFE Link -> Sour Patch Grapes YUM!

We tried a few tonight - me well I love sour candy and when my husband tried it, he pucker up and had that look, like oh my that was sour. LOL I am waiting to see what others look like when they pop one in their mouths, plus having their mouths turn green too. LOL Yummy! I was thinking about getting some gummy candies to add to it. To bad they didn't make gummy spiders eh! Or do they? *wicked smiles*
 Both of us will be dressed up in our costumes tomorrow night. we were told that we won't win money, but that is OK. We just want to have some fun is all tomorrow night. But they do have great prizes anyhow. Nice Halloween Prizes.
So let's see the decorations that you worked hard on from 1pm to 5pm. 
OK here they are: 
I helped with the graveyard, the spider webs all over on walls and decor. I decorated the center pieces on the tables too. 
 



The gray wall there is because Kristy is going to take pictures of people in their costumes for her Photography class lesson. :) Kristy and I decorated this whole scene together.
 

  
This is a center piece that I decorated with Spider Webs. 
  
This long table up front is the judges table. These few little tables are Guess how many eye balls and candycorn's there are. Also guess how much the pumpkin weighs too. 
 


 

Looks great eh! It is going to be fun indeed! 
  
This table over here with the balloons is food in a jar - you know like soups in a jar. They are $5 for a jar. Great Christmas Gifts to give to someone. :) 

ok I thought I would show you what our Halloween Party looks like for tomorrow night. We are hoping that it will be cool in there in the evening. I guess they maintenance crew shut off the swamp coolers and now getting ready for the heaters to kick in for the winter time. (Yes it does get cold here at 5,000 ft in elevation above sea level. - we wear coats , hats, and mittens here at times. lol) 
I love this witch photo! She is actually cute!
 Anyways.......
Just to let you all know that we are going to a casino in Tucson that was mentioned to us today with a Halloween Costume Contest on the 31st. that is if we can get in there with our face makeup on. If we can't, we won't be going, because it takes 3 to 4 hours ahead of time to put on our face paints. We will see. We also would have went to Old Tucson to Nightfall, but they want $25 per person to get in the door, that is to much money each person to get in the door to see nut cases run around scaring people and then going into the Demon's Den to dance and listen to LOUD music and see gross things. Nahhhhh I guess we are getting to old for gore anymore. Our costumes are not scary anymore and no longer will be either. :) Plus the people that work there have scary looking clown costumes anyhow. I hate clowns, they to in itself are creepy anyways. *laughing* No thank you! Especially blue haired clowns and then if the have those creepy contacts in!!! I would have nightmares days on end. No thank you! No Nightfall in Old Tucson! 

I will have more photos tomorrow evening to share on a blog. Enjoy these photos above - click on the photos to make them BIGGER to see more. Enjoy!
