Halloween Party

The party was so fun, thanks to Bets and M for hosting at the Ranch. I think I successfully traumatized a handful of kids in the haunted barn. We used grapes for eyeballs, spiral pasta for brains, fettucini for guts, and ketchup for blood. All mixed with a gelatinous-need-not-discuss liquidy substance and the kids were FREAKED OUT. Only for a bit though, then they were on to me! Even C (T and B's Grammy) was the Headless Horseman (lights on the horse too) passing out candy.
