In the picture above, it looks like there was a real ghost in the room! check out those see through hands!!!
October 30, I went to James' 6Th grade class to help with their party. It was so much fun! I brought River, and all the girls wanted to hold him, unfortunately now he has a mind of his own and he wasn't having it. There were 4 mothers there, including myself, and we all had different "stations" I did a game where the kids had to eat 3 pieces of taffy with a pair of vampire fangs in their mouth. It was so funny to watch. The kids thought it would be easy but it was so hard for most of them. There was LOTS of drool involved, I even gagged just watching some of them. The mother that did the game with the kids eating donettes off strings just happened to have 2 left over. So I challenged Mrs. Hokanson (who just happens to have been my teacher when I was in 5Th grade, 20 years ago) to go against me. Little did she know I had a plan, those Hostess Donettes can fit into my mouth whole. so I just chomped it and ripped it off the string, it made her laugh so hard, she didn't even get a bite, all she got was a powder dabbed cheek. Lastly the whole class sat in a circle and played a game called. "trick or treat" they would draw out of a bucket a paper with either word on it. If they drew the word treat, they just got a treat, but if they drew the word trick they had to do something funny, almost like truth or dare. Some of the kids were so embarrassed, they refused to do their trick in front of the class. James' trick was to gallop around the room as the Headless Horseman. His friend had to Kiss his favorite GHOUL. He refused. There were 2 girls who had to "share a pair of bat wings" it was fruit leather, it was like Lady and the Tramp the spaghetti scene, so it looked like they were kissing.
It was really fun. I can't believe I forgot about Mrs. Hokanson's laugh, it's priceless. lol.
