Sally was a baker and Nick was a firefighter.  The first order of business was making and eating a witch hat out of a cookie, lots of icing and a sugar cone.

Sally got a kick out of using the knife to ice the cookie.  She played this game where you have to throw the ball into the hole.  After 4 tries from 2 inches away, she made it!

The hall was filled with games and kids in costume.  Sally enjoyed making a finger puppet.

A pumpkin photo shoot was available.  Then, you could make a frame and leave with your framed photo.  The evening ended with indoor trunk or treat down the hallway.  (Apparently, the trick or treating happens outside when the weather is nice.)

We were able to limit the sugar rush and both kids are now in bed.  Everyone had a great time!

The host of the first party is an Art Director for her full time job.  Everything detail is always done extremely well!  We arrived just after 3PM.  There were carnival games such as a spider ring toss, Halloween corn hole, penny toss and pin the tail on the black cat.

All of the kids and some of the parents were in costume.  One family game as pirates.

There was a train table which Nick and Sally loved.  There was also plenty of themed food.  Mummy pizza, sunflower butter and jelly sandwiches shaped like pumpkins and bats, a candy board with miniature bags of candy where just a few of the items on the first table.

This veggie tray was done up like a cemetery.  The sweets table had spider treats, eye ball doughnuts and others.

There was a craft table set up with bead necklaces and put a sticker face on paper pumpkins.  Soon enough, we were all outside for the piñata.  Notice the Man in the Yellow Hat.  He came with his sister Curious George.

Everyone took a turn at the piñata.  It finally broke with some adult intervention.

Everything was nicely decorated.  I also remembered to get a photo with the host.

We arrived at the second party around 5PM.  Everyone brought something and we had fruit, veggies, pizza and a couple of desserts for dinner.  The kids enjoyed seeing each other and being all dressed up.

This photo has all of the older kids.

This photo was our attempt at all of the kids including two babies.

After dinner, there was lots of playing.  Nick was again enamored with the trains.  I see a train table in his future.

We all had a great day!
