This year for Halloween I had picked out my costume a couple weeks earlier since I knew I was going to a 90's Themed Halloween Party! Thankfully, Rachel decided to be the Garth to my Wayne from 'Wayne's World' and we were all set. Excellent :)

Neil and Chris have their Annual Halloween Bash and spare no expense...the house is decorated with spider webs, pumpkins, Halloween posters and more. There are libations of every shape and kind, some snacks, a killer play-list (90's music this year with some Halloween favorites - you have to groove to "Get Down Goblin") and everyone is dressed in costume or they don't gain access to the party. This year I made my Salsa (Healthy Salsa Recipe) along with some Cupcakes and also came up with a Shot that we called Sangria De La Muerte or Blood of the Dead. It was similar to a Margarita with a little Strawberry and then Grenadine to create the blood. Both the Salsa and Shot were a hit!

Rachel and I had a blast playing Wayne & Garth, using some of of our favorite lines from the movie, which we had watched the week before as a little refresher course for the costumes. 'We're not worthy!' 'Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?' 'Schwing!' All night longSamantha came as Rachel from 'Friends' and was the perfect blonde Rachel. Jamie was 90's Catwoman, aka the Michelle Pfeiffer era, and was sensational! The costume fit her like a glove and she rocked it! There was a Buffy & Angel from 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer,' dead Jack Dawson from 'Titanic,' (seriously incredible make-up skills) Poison Ivy also from 'Batman' and the two lovelies who created post it's, that would be Romy & Michelle (totally great and random costume idea)! I knew we'd see some people from 'Clueless,' there was Mike Ditka, a little 'Terminator' action, Chris was Jeff Jeffries from 'Rear Window' and Neil was Marilyn Manson from three different time frames, changing costumes, wigs, and make-up. It was by far the quickest I've ever done anyone's costume make-up so thankfully he had some photos for reference. And of course Neil had three costumes...it wouldn't be Halloween if he didn't!
It was nice to
hang out with my friends all together, take pictures of everyone throughout the
night, serve up the House Shot to all the new arrivals (seconds and
thirds for some of us), make some new friends, and celebrate Halloween
90's style! Party on Wayne! Party on Garth!
