Kai and Dana threw a humongous Halloween party this year, complete with hay bails and marshmallow-roasting, a haunted house downstairs, and a multi-category costume contest. Above: Miss Piggy and her posse. (Dane the Clown lost his squeaky red nose in some forgotten corner that night.)
Aubs the Funky Cowgirl, came up with her costume herself.

Everybody brought a spooky snack. We brought our skeleton cupcakes. One savvy person made a watermelon brain.
Here I am with my 70s Sister, Ava.
Kate and Mike Jack made their own amazing, awe-inspiring, spectacular costumes: hindu gods. They won Best Costume and Best Couple, I think. Deservedly so.
Although this duo ran a close second, giving the hindu gods a run for their money. Scott and Christy (one of my writing pals) also made their own amazing, awe-inspiring, spectacular costumes -- and they get extra points for staying in full character all night long.
And here's SuperJulie (writing pal) and SuperMiles SuperInada.
Jennie the Pioneer (writing pal) with two of her brood.
Mick Piggy, as adorable as ever.

And here's the whole fam again, in case you missed it the first time.
An added note: Mick Piggy won prizes
