Halloween Decor and Invitations

 I had so much fun with Halloween this year. Not only did we end up having a costume party, we went all out with (my type of) Halloween decor.
I couldn't find a font I loved for the invitations so I made them by hand. Crazytown, I know. I had gotten these envelopes not knowing what we would use them for at Artco (in Rexburg). They were perfect!!!
 I had two different kinds of envelopes and ribbons.
 Food table. I borrowed some decor from Laura Black for the party.

 This painting is so perfect for Halloween. Just creepy enough. I sprayed some cattails black and they looked so great! Love the ravens always and pumpkins. Some potion bottles that Todd and Jen made.
 Love these flying bats.

 We got a little taxidermy alligator and put a fake hand inside.
 Every surface was spooky. Even in the bathroom we had some decorations.
 Front porch.
Pinata. I was so pleased with how it turned out. I like the silver and black paint. The structure was pretty difficult and we only got to hit it twice, but it looked great!!

Robot costume

 After last years viking costume, which was discarded 30 minutes after starting Trick-or-treating, Liam wanted something more accessable this year. Epic fail! This one didn't make it ten minutes. But it looks pretty cool.
I had him completely design it. Okay, I showed him some examples, but he chose which elements he wanted to use.
 I got some silver spray paint, boxes, silver (shiny) duct tape, and some stuff at the dollar store.
Turned out pretty cool. The light on his belly glows (can you tell?). The orange part on his forhead was a strobe light.
