Halloween party

So last night was the HUGE Halloween party.  This is a party that my friends plan a year in advance.  We aren't talking rookie parties.  This is the full blown P A R T Y.  This year, I finally pulled off the Statue of Liberty costume.  I found a funny green dress online at Target.  I got a torch and crown online too.  I made a sashy drape thing out of netting from the fabric store.  I think it worked out okay.  I also brought my cousin Ryan with me.  He came as a missionary which was a huge hit.


 

 
I admit, against my doctor's orders, I did enjoy some adult beverage.  Actually lots of adult beverage.  Unfortunately, I realized too late that not only was I drinking more than I probably should, I mixed my alcohol which always doesn't work for me the next day.  But boy I had a great time.  Jello shots flow freely.  One of them tasted just like a watermelon jolly rancher (yummy).  I also finally tried the "shotski" with an apple cider/Everclear thing.  It was delicious but one was absolutely enough.  I am not sure Everclear is meant for people over 40.

They use black plastic to black out their entire garage and put in black lights.  That is the party room where they have a bar and lots of dancing.  Cousin Ryan fit right in with the group.  They welcomed him in with open arms....literally.  He is now part of the group.  I hope he doesn't mind.

Words don't really express this party but there were lots of photos.  I thought I would share some with you to show the extent of the awesomeness of this group of friends.  There were probably 75-100 people at the party.  It was amazing.

Erik as Goldmember

Stacy as Foxy Cleopatra

 Mike and Kim (the hosts) as Orange is the new Black lesbians.  Mike has on fishnet nylons and black sparkly shorts under his dress.

Koli as Betty Boop.  She glued her real eyebrows down.  I am not sure how her eyebrows made out this morning.

My friend Kimberlee and her hubby Aki as Robin Thick and twerking Miley Cyrus. My cousin Ryan the Missionary too. She is the only woman I know that could pull off that skimpy outfit.

Goldmember and Foxy

These are my girls.  Left to Right, Koli, Stacy, Kimberlee, Kim, Christine, and me.
 
Orange is the New Black lesbians.  Clearly the men that marry into this family must be comfortable with their sexuality.

The hot couple - Lesley and Jason

Goldmember and Little Red Riding hood Grandma

Brook as Little Red and the wolf

The Tooth Fairy (Amy) twirling

More garage dancing

I have no idea who this guy is but I loved his costume.  We had to promise we wouldn't post it on Facebook.  He is the crazy cat lady.  Such a clever idea.
 
Now my Halloween is over for me which is fine by me.  I had a great time but now I can start getting ready for my trip to Nola's house next weekend.
