Queen of Halloween

Every year I get the comments that 

I am the

Queen of Halloween.

Well, this year, I felt like one.

I have never had so many fun costumes

and had so much fun

during October!  The many faces

of Mrs. Purple Chocolat Home

(and that doesn't include the Olaf

costume I spent two days making!)

The house was decorated early,

tables were set,

and we had lots of company to enjoy 

the fun.

In addition, we have been able to

run from one fabulous event to another

making this the best October ever!

We have hosted a Halloween Party

for over sixty,

We have tried out new treats and

new crafts to feather our "scary"

nest.

We made fun cupcakes that were on our 

bucket list for years,

We got to enjoy Witches' Tea at the Grand America
which is our first time for this at Halloween.

We had so much fun

creating quite a stir as

a Disney cast of characters,

while we enjoyed delicious afternoon tea
or hot cocoa.  The food was all fabulous!

It was so fun to hear, "Oh, can I have a picture
with Ursula, she is my favorite Disney Character?" or
"I want a picture with Snow White!"  or "Maleficent,
can I have a picture with you?"

Of course the cutest was, "Mom, the real
Elsa is here, can I have a picture with her?"

But in the end, I think Ursula

stole the show with her purple face

and waving tentacles!

We went to Witches' Night Out

at Gardner Village with family

and friends and had faces painted,

ate fun food and danced the night

away until our little witchy feet

couldn't take anymore fun.

Camera Shy at Gardner Village took

professional photos - 2 poses for $20 so

we took advantage of that.

The highlight of the season had to be

going to Disneyland for 

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

where the Belles reigned supreme.

In addition we helped with Trick or Treating

down at The Shops At Riverwoods.

Can a girl have more fun than this year?

I doubt it! 

 Now all I have left to do 

is buy candy for over 300 that come

on Halloween Night!

Halloween will never be this fun again!
