Halloween Party 2013

When we moved to Vegas we made some really good friends, The Gunns.  We settled in and now we are pretty much family.  Sarah Gunn and I agreed that we should be more outgoing and thus the idea of an Annual Gunn and Huntley Halloween Party was born.  Last year it was a zombie apocalypse party and this year it was all about Super Heroes. 

We always hand deliver the invites and told everyone to come in their original superhero costume.The first hour is for the entire family.  We have crafts, face painting, games and pizza.  

Harper was the perfect little dragon!
Toren and Audrey let us borrow Iron Man, I mean Austin, for the parrty.
After the first hour the kids head over to the Gunns house and the real party begins.  This year I was the Super hero ref.  My super power? The ability to referee issues between super villains and super heros. We seperated the guest into two groups villians and heros.  The first game was a jousting game.  The Heros came out victorious.
The second game was a trivia game, Heros won again.  The third game was to test agility, the villians made a come back.  And the final game was progressive charades. The villians tied it up!

Well there can't be a tie.  As the ref I came up with the tie Breaker (really, we didn't have the idea of a tie planned) that every great villian and super hero has an orgin story and so each team would have to tell me one of their teams origin story. 
The Heros (above) went first. It was a tragic tale of how the super hero born on a small island west of Canada... It was epic!

Then it was the Villains turn.  I can't even explain... Essentially they won because they embarrassed me way to much!  The Villains ended up being victorious!
It was an amazing party!  We all had a great time.  It is going to be difficult to top it next year.  Sarah are you ready for the challenge?
