We had our little Halloween party on Saturday. It was everything that I’d hoped for. Preparing for a party is a lot of work — cooking, cleaning, decorating — but when it all comes together, it’s so worth it. We all had a great time with lots of yummy food, laughs, and a fun costume contest. My monster eye-ball deviled eggs were a smash! The gorgeous decorations from Papir Vendage were a huge hit, too. Here are some photos from our bash.

    How did you do it all, I mean I am always a mess, running around & managing everything in my parties. You look so calm. So proud of you. The food, the decorations everything looks amazing. We don’t have Halloween here. I loved your costumes. You all looked so cute. If we ever come to the States, I am definitely choosing The Halloween time!
