3 Days / 4 Parties

Since Thursday, we have had 4 parties.. Here are some pictures of how much fun we have been having.

* Thursday - our cute neighbor Tiffany Kempton had a little shin-dig for all the kids to come dressed up & have a little fun. Ellie & Noah loved it. (So did my mom & I)
Even though Noah watched Ellie put on her costume, he really believed that Ellie was THE REAL DEAL!! I couldn't help but laugh ever time Noah looked at Ellie & would say "Oh, HI Dora!"!! Noah asked me "Is Ellie going to be on t.v. now?"... and Ellie asked me later "When I go in the t.v. are you going to come and will you tell my daddy?" She believes she turns into Dora as soon as she is in the costume, too! I love it.
GREAT PARTY TIFFANY! WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!

Dora & Diego on a rescue mission....
Cutest little {fairy} pumpkin. (Gracie Glover)
Julie Skelton and Tiffany Kempton (the hostess).
Fireman & Batman. (the cute kid Zack on the left just came from preschool & was so sad he wasn't in his costume) Little Ladybug. (Amberlee Bloomfield)
Batman and his cute mom (Jheri Glover).
L-R: Amanda Raine, Marci Coleman, Jamie Bloomfield, and my mom VIC.
Cutest little bumblebee. (Reese Kempton)
* Friday - our friend Tiffy Applegate had a huge Halloween party. My whole family (minus Brad) was invited... but only Alisse, Scott, Lance & me represented. It was fun. We didn't know too many people there, but I still had to take some snaps of creative costumes. How do people think some of these up?
GREAT PARTY TIFFY!! (I am still ticked I never got any pictures of your costume... send me one.)
Billy Rae & Hannah Montana.. (Ellie says "Hannah MonnAtannah!!)
Lances MULLET that he SUPER GLUED in his hair!
(and the result)
Samantha Baker Davis Jr. & Jake Ryan! "This is the guy".. (Alisse & Scott)
I didn't get any pictures of Katie or the front of Layne.. but they were sperm & egg!
Old Lady that lost her dog! (Pam Grover)
The woopie cushion. (Randy Grover)Dog the Bounty Hunter & (below) his wife Beth!! (Ryan & Debra Grover)
(she is so skinny so she stuffed her pants, too)
Just some cute fans!!
Scariest couple winners! (Brad & Jenny)
Flapper girl & pimp? (Jesse & Lacee)
Hugh Heffner? and one of his Playboy bunnies. (I didn't know them)
WOW!! The Hooters Worker! This guy really made me laugh. I asked if I could take his picture & he completely posed for me! NO, he wasn't looking at someone... just staring into space!!
This hottie came late, but she was a SHE'S GOT IT ALL model!! (Missy Glover)
* Saturday - After substituting at the gym (again), my mom, some sisters & I decided to go to the NEW mall. It is right by Auburn's house, so she has been telling us about what stores were going in, when it was going to open, and all that jazz... So that afternoon, we went & scoped it out. I have gotta say, I am not too impressed. I'll go again, but it was really hot, really crowded, the cafeteria was not planned out well (not to mention the food choices weren't too good), I really wasn't very excited about many stores... PLUS, I didn't have a dime to spend... so that probably didn't help. The best part was seeing so many people we knew.
Ellie was prairie doggin' it. (I couldn't help but say that.. I had to take her picture with the prairie dog!!)
The food court. (I think Shalae was making a pose.. oh wait, I know she was) Noah treating Elles like she is the PriNceSs.. which she is!!
This guy was nasty. I had to alert security to keep an eye on him. I think he was watching kids and he was there alone. SICKO!!
That night our {AWESOME} neighborhood had their HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL. Ellie helped me make some yummy cupcakes for the CAKE WALK.
Shalae volunteered to watch Auburn's kids, so we had lots of fun all together...
THANKS TO ALL OF THOSE WHO SPENT TONS OF TIME PLANNING & PREPARING THIS. THE HARD WORK PAID OFF!! (humm humm Jheri Glover)


Noah loved the dunk tank & hit the target.. just not hard enough.
Cutest DORTHY ever! (Roxy)
Annie & Miss Hannigan. (Addi & Haleigh Hansen) Ellie wanted to be Annie this year , so she loved seeing her good friends be the part!
Don't forget about Daddy Warbucks!! (Tate Hansen, who was signing "DADDY"! He is so cute.)
Crystal, Steve, & Yoda!
Annikan (sp?) (Jackson Cummard)
Elle loved the face painting booth & the cake walk. (she picked her own cupcake)
Yummy hot dogs. Riggs learned some posing tricks from his aunt Shalae!!
Also that night Lance & I were invited to another Halloween party at Jill & Noah Tyler's. We went last year and had so much fun & we were glad to be invited again. ONLY problem, Lance was finally invited to go to an ASU game with his brothers. He decided he was going to go, since he hadn't been asked yet & since it was supposed to be a good game (which it was). SO, since I already told Jill I was coming & I knew she didn't do too many couple games, plus Jill told me there would be a few other girls coming without their husbands.. I tagged along with Crystal & Steve. I am glad I went.. except I am really annoyed that my husband is now TICKED off that I went to a party. (I don't see what he did different than me. Sorry to vent, but 1)we were told about the party before the game, 2)he decided to not go to the party..NOT ME, 3)he went to a game with his brothers and his friends.. I went to a (LDS) party with his brother & wife & my friends. Lance & I never fight, so this really bugs me.)
ANY WHO.. once again, I am shocked at how people can be so creative about costumes...
THANKS JILL FOR ALL THE FUN. YOU & NOAH ARE SO FUNNY!!
Dog the Bounty Hunter & his wife Beth. (Jill & Noah)
Even the decor was so cute. Sorry, couldn't resist...
Dog hosting the party. They planned the funnest games!
WOW. (Jills brother)
Zack & Kelli from Saved By The Bell!! LOVE IT! (Steve & Crystal)
Star Wars (Donnie & Brett).. and the costume winners on the left, the tennis sisters .. Williams?. (the 2 dressed up were Sarah Tindall & her husband. I just about died when Lacee Hogle finally told me who they were. I didn't know that was make up.. WOW, they deserved to win!!) The big bad wolf & little red riding hood (Boyd & his wife), and The SMURFS!! (Mele & Cameron)
Nicole Richie (trying to avoid the cameras) & the babies daddy!! (Kate & Jay)
The (boring) painter man on PBS & his paint brush. (Kyle & Melissa).. So creative.
Biker Dude & his biker chick. (Amber & Robert)
Dwight & Angela (I don't know who they were, but they were funny. I asked her why she didn't bring a cat and she said "OH, Sprinkles died!"!!)
3 smokin hot ladies...

Katie Peterson said...

Par-tay on girly!! How fun...I can't believe the creative costumes people come up with too! I will have to remeber some of them for next year so I won't stress so bad!

Your cupcake pics were too cute & looked delicious!

Cummards said...

Cute pictures thanks for posting them! It looks like all the parties went good, and were lots of fun. People down there are sure lots more creative then those up here! I can't look at a picture of Ellie dressed as Dora without laughing, the wig is so funny!

p.s. I hope you and Lance can work out your marital issues! Just think of the mullet, how can you be mad at that?! Just kiddin.

Missy said...

I expect a huge kickback from SGIA for that snap shot I did for you! And for not dressing up in my most awesome costume I had planned to wear to the party and instead sporting the LOVE for SGIA. Come on now. (seriously can I get an UGLIER in that pic, but unlike some people I prefer my ugly face pics...the dorkier/uglier the better)

I thought you were so cute at the party. And I still think you are O-O-C...party-hardy girl.

MichelleY said...

How fun - all those parties looked like you had a blast! HOw come I didn't see you at the HP carnival? Probably still getting ready to be Hannah - you know practicing your scales and everything. P.S. Did I ever tell you that Hannah has a twin - her name is Chrissy and she was on a little show named Newport Harbour - so a little confuzed as who you really were for Halloween - H or C - either way they are both super cute -and I LOVED the pic of Lance's after mullet!

Shalae just keep on buildin' up her resume with her ugly face photos. I'm still surprised she didn't go to the parties- she's the sexiest bachelorette EVER.
Move over Brad Womack!

Seriously, Elle in the Dora wig is hilarious, and even more hilarious that she thinks it transforms her into teh real Dora and believes she can fly and stuff.

People at Jill's (who's Jill again?) party were so creative! Sam & Jake would've been lost in the crowd fo' sho' there.

See it Try it Love it said...

Wow you must be very popular to be invited to all those parties! I love all the pics, Ellie is so freaking cute in her Dora costume. Can't wait till halloween. Glad you came to the party with us, it just wouldn't be the same without you.

I'm so glad the Dora costume worked for Ellie! Noah & Ellie are to die for! Lance's mullet was suh-weet/nasty! So funny! GREAT costume, Suzanne. I love that you didn't leave ONE detail out of your busy Halloween weekend! Oh and those Halloween cupcakes need to be photographed and submitted to Martha's magazine. Perfect...just like you!

Linz said...

Is She's got it All your website?! I just have to say that I am a huge fan! I love it!

Mikelle said...

Wow,that's WAY too much fun for one week! It was fun to see all those costumes-way good ideas! & my Hannah LOVED your costume(& Ellie's too)She loves Hannah Montana, even though we don't have cable so she never even sees it? I'm sorry I missed the BJH day, I wanted to be there! Did it go ok?

Unknown said...

wow, you've been busy! the pics were all way cute! glad you found some boots to make hannah montana's outfit complete!

Amy said...

Oh my gosh Suzanne, I about died laughing that you took a picture of the sicko perv taking pictures(?) of kids at the mall. That is too funny!!

Jheri said...

Okay, that was the cutest post! Love all the pic.'s. You and your family are so cute. I just want to squeeze Ellie, she is so dang cute!!!

The Potters said...

I love to read your long posts, but at the end I'm not sure what to say :) cause there's so much to comment about... I loved Dora and Diego! Those two had to match costumes :) And I feel really bad for Lance's poor lil head. Maybe it would have been better to leave the mullett on. Everyone one loves a little Billy Ray! Looks like you had a fun Halloween with all those parties! BUT we did miss you at the MHS alumni half time.

Miss ya' ... we need to hang soon :)
