St. George Halloween Party

We had a great time at our Halloween party on November 1st. There were a variety of costumes that night. We had a princess, two Darth Vaders, Pippi Longstocking, Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz and many more. We bowled with pumpkins, had a mummy wrapping costume and told our own scary story. A big thanks to Kate and Hope for the wonderful food. We had Mummy dogs, Jac-O-Lantern Pizza and floating hands in our punch.

Another crowd pleaser was bobbing for apples. The youth were slow to participate so I told them I would bob for an apple if they all got an apple, (thinking they wouldn’t all get one) and they all did. So I plunged my head into the water and got my own apple. The kids sure make it look easier than it really is.

Here are few pictures of the bobbing for apples!
