2008

2008 turned out to be a very, very busy year.  We had a family wedding, and lots of other events going on and had actually decided not to have a party at one point.  A lot of people were upset that we weren't going to do it, so we through one together quickly.  Again, no real theme unless you count distract and entertain.  The highlight of this party was a bounce house and a costume tent. 
We have been collected oddball accessories, clothes, and costume pieces from second hand stores, dollar stores, and friends and family for years.  We set up a tent with all of these things so anyone who wasn't in costume when they got here was by the time they left.  Everyone had a lot of fun changing into various costumes throughout the night. 

This was our other big hit.  If you're ever short of time, rent one of these bad boys.  Instant party hit. 


One of the few creative hits we had was these glowing balls.  We got them at the Dollar Tree.  They are made up a glowsticks with connectors.  We hung ours from fishing line over tables to give the illusion of floating centerpieces.  That's not a great picture, but I hope you get the idea.
