Halloween Party

We really got into Halloween this year and decided to have a party. It was actually a multi-Ford party. Since there are 3 Ford's on our street, we had fun things going on at each house and the families would go house to house. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures before the party started, so some of our decorations had started falling down already.

This is our entryway. The black cloth and the streamers boxed it in more in the beginning and we had a strobe light going inside for the people to walk through.

This was one of the activities we had. I used my FABULOUS Cricut machine to cut out plain pumpkins. And then used it again to cut out eyes, noses, mouths, arms, legs, etc. for the kids to decorate with. We got some pretty interesting pumpkins out of it! :o)

If you saw the pictures of our house in a previous post, you saw that there is a big indented area for an entertainment system that we clearly don't have. So since we had just a square table with a TV on it and a few toys in that area, we moved them all out! We replaced them with a spiderweb area that was originally completely covered with the black cloths. Inside was just a black light with webs and spiders and the kids had to sneak in and find a spider to grab and keep!

Apparently I didn't get a full room shot, but here are some other pictures of our decorations.

What a great idea! Looks super fun and the pumpkin cut-outs were fab. Three Fords on your street? Hope you're doing well prego buddy.
