Tweens and Teens Halloween Parties

Just Dance 2.
Drama Queen, Tori, and Emma.

Tonight our teen, Drama Queen, and her younger sister, Artist, held simultaneous Halloween Parties at our house. (Joe and I are new to this scene.) Drama lit candles and tea lights (hundreds!) all over the house. She had a couple of friends come and watch Vanhellsing, a vampire movie. Artist had four close friends come and watch Goonies, paint fingernails like Jack-o-Lanterns, glitter nails, or in neon, and putting in long hair feathers.

We provided the Papa Murphey's pizza, bread sticks, pumpkin punch (pumpkin, apple and white grape juices, spice, and some Sprite Zero), and caramel apple supplies.

We used the recipe from Our Best Bites. You can find it here: Gourmet Caramel Apples

Little Baby said her first Family Prayer aloud tonight. It went mostly like this: Say Dear Heavenly Father. Dear. We thank Thee. Say Thank you. Thank you. For Daddy. Daddy For Mommy. Mommy For Hannah. Hannah. For Rebekah. Bebah For Jonathan. (Nothing) For Susie. Susie. For Eva. Evie. Baby. Baby. Amen. (Silence. Big smile).
