Halloween Birthday Party - Part 1

While home during my vacation we threw my grandma a Boooorthday party!  As I'm sure I've mentioned before, Halloween is my Aunt Edwina's favorite holiday.  She goes all out with the decorations and used to have Bunco parties where she would make disgusting looking food, etc.  Sadly, I missed most of the festivities, because I was not at home.

Well, lucky for me this year.  I was home at just the right time and decided a Halloween Party we shall have!  The above pictures are from her front porch.  Can you guess the Halloween theme this year?  

Spiders you say!  You  guessed correctly.  Each year she picks out a Halloween theme & decorates accordingly!  Details are what make the decorations so great - did you notice the eyeball sitting in the Erlenmeyer flask atop the toilet?  There were even fingers in the soap!

Spooky - going up the stairs to the haunted upstairs - do you like the hanging mummy? or the bloody arm coming from the closet halfway up the stairs?
And really - no joke the upstairs is truly haunted.  Seriously creepy.  You would have to pay me big bucks to sleep upstairs by myself.  Heck, I stayed at my aunt's house in high school- got sick with the flu and while home during the day by myself only traveled from the living room to the bathroom, because I was too big of a scaredy cat to go anywhere else! ahhhh...

Spiders hover over the table, waiting for food to arrive.


Spider eggs!


Ms. Spider checking herself out in the embalming fluid flask prior to the party - making sure she looks her best!


Mona Lisa?


AHHHH.....silent screams fill the house.  This makes me think of the Dementors from Harry Potter.


Spiders, spiders, spiders - everywhere!


Deviled eggs or should I say eyes &  spiders - Yum Yum!


Flesh face anyone?! 


Mummy dogs!


Spider pizza!


Mmm....my favorite meatloaf hands!


Salt & Pepper eyes!


The whole layout!



COSTUME TIME!  

Biker babes, tattoos and all!


The wicked witch herself!  :)


Michelangelo and Robin Hood?!? Oh wait, I mean Peter Pan!  
"I Can Fly, I Can Fly"


The deal for the party was each family was in charge of bringing one fun Halloween game!  Tomorrow I'll post more pics from the party!
