Harry Potter Goes Halloween

Me and my friend Casey decided we wanted to throw a Halloween party this year. And what better theme to have then "Harry Potter goes Halloween?!"
Casey made these awesome invitations and they just made my day.
Harry Potter & Ginny Weasley
The Weasley & Potter Families
Casey's Step-Dad is a "Master Pumpkin Carver". He carved all these pumpkins special for our Harry Potter party. They are so cool!!!
I wanted to put just how awesome he is at carving pumpkins into perspective by comparing it to my work of art.
Wa-la!!! Pathedic isn't it?! (Oh well, GO UTES!!!)

Okay, back to the Halloween Party... Jordan & I came up with our version of "Fear Factor". It was simply amazing if I do say so myself.
We did all sorts of gross things like dig through bowls of pig snot (whip cream) for boogers (bubble gum)...
Ate spoonfuls of Dog Food (corn beef hash)...
and yes Nick did barf right after attempting this.
Sucking on lemons soaked in lemon juice and salt.
Bobbed for onions in a cauldron filled with gold fish.
I wasn't so good at this so Jordan took over for me. Notice how he just dove right in to win the task.
Drenched after the nasty onion bob.
Haha this was a task where we tied paddle balls around our waists and tried to trigger the mouse trap as quick as possible. Hilarious.
Other games included things like: eating chocolate covered worms, sticking your hand in a bag full of crickets, digging through spaghetti covered in mill-worms with your face, eating harry potter ever flavor jelly beans (which included flavors such as; rotten egg, pencil shavings, barf, centipede, skunk spray, booger, etc).
It was a fun filled night full of good food, disgusting food, laughs, dry heaving, and tons of fun!!
Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

In other news... Jordan & I were lucky enough to get to go to the Jason Aldean concert Oct. 22nd compliments of our great friends Chauny & Deb. Thanks guys!! We had so much fun!!
And... I love being an Aunt. Ethan, Alyssa, and I couldn't resist diving into Grandpa's giant pile of leaves the other day. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these kiddos.
