Witches Night Out

>
Some of you have heard or probably even been to Gardener's Village in Utah. There's a bunch of different cottages that are shops. All of them are themed, for instance, there's a shop that's just stitches or everything in it is white or everything for shelves. In October, they totally dec out and decorate in witches and then they have a Witches Night Out where the women dress as witches and go shopping. A couple years ago me and my sister Lesa and two of our friends thought it would be fun to have a witches night out here. It was a blast. I decided to do one again with my friends and neighbors and it was a HIT! This is the invitation I made and I had my three girls dress up as witches and deliver them to my guests.
My kids had so much fun delivering them and they begged me to come to the Witches Night Out. I sent 35 invitations and only four people couldn't come. I spent some time making door prizes and here's some of them


We met at my house for some appetizers and caramel apple cider and then off to Johnny Carinos to eat. There was a group of kids there that kept pointing and laughing at us. Everyone had a great time and it got my mind racing about ideas for next year. Here's some pics

Karri, I take back everything nice I ever said about you! (I just read Lillie's blog).

I'm totally kidding, you know I think you're wonderful! :) I somehow have to get over my phobia of pictures. I guess having one posted on the internet is kinda like someone who is afraid of tall buildings being on top of the Empire State building, right? :) Have a fun long weekend with those cute kiddos!

That looks like so much fun! Is that Jolleen, Abby's old college roomate? That is so funny. Tell her Hi, she probably doesn't remember me though, oh well tell her hi anyways. You guys make great witches, in a good way!
