Here are a few pictures from the party we had on Saturday. We usually do Aprilween, but because April was so busy, we pushed it back to May. Thus, Maprilween.

It looks dreary in the morning-after light, but the photo corner has become the cornerstone of our parties. |
Some people really went all the way with their costumes this year. If there had been a prize for most unwieldy, least-likely-to-get-in-the-door costume, it was this homage to the Wizard of Oz. What you can't see are the black and white striped stocking, red sparkly shoes and beer-holder.
Lastly, make sure that you delegate tasks according to one's skills. If someone is good at mowing the lawn and washing the dishes before the party, let them. Don't force a square peg into a round hole by trying to make them purchase party snacks. All you'll have to show for it will be 8 mini Reese's cups and a miniature bag of Jelly Bellys.
I love your decoration posts. It all looks awesome.
