Sometime in September, I was talking to my brother, Andrew about throwing a party for our Pace cousins. We always talk about doing something like that, but it never happens because everyone is busy and nobody wants to be in charge blah blah blah. Well long story short, I decided that I was going to make it happen and I was going to go full out and host a fun Halloween party for my friends and cousins. And I did!

It was A LOT of work, a lot more than I even expected, but I was so glad I followed through and made it happen! I spent so much time and energy and effort on the invitations and decorations and I was so worried that it wouldn't pay off but it totally did. People came and brought food and stayed the whole night and just really had a good time. We hosted the party at my parents house and we told everyone that if they didn't come in costume that one would be provided for them. Most people came in costume, but there were a few people who had to dig through the dress-up chest :).
For dinner, we had potato cheese soup in bread bowls with salad and fruit and homemade rootbeer. Then we moved downstairs for munchies and a movie and a few very intense games of Mafia. It was fun! Even though we were so tired by the end, it was totally worth it to do something that got everyone together. I'm already making plans for next year......
Love, Rebecca
