Halloween Party

At our restaurant, we hosted a Halloween party for our little town. We sent out formal invitations and the whole bit. Yellville isn't used to such a thing, and we weren't sure how it would go over. Our goal is to spice up this town a little and have them cut loose and enjoy life a little more. I think we were successful this night! We probably had 40 people come through during the night, which is great for Yellville. Since the party, we've heard many people say that they wished they would have come, so hopefully next year will be even better. We had a live band who did a spectacular job, we did an all you can eat taco bar, and had all sorts of snacks and random desserts. Here are a few of our closest friends:

Sonja and Tonya displaying their pumpkin (we had a decorating contest where teams could only use the random stuff we put in a bag to decorate the pumpkin with. They didnt win, but their costumes are adorable. hee hee)Mr. President Obama... my cousin Giancarlo, and Hillary Clinton, his girlfriend Daisha.My dear friend Tina (who also works for us), and her husband Josh. She drug that ball around all night and almost tripped SEVERAL times on it...Nathan and Kaci Rogers... how cute!A really neat family, also my cousins, Michael, Hali, and Darcy.A member of Joel's collegiate class, an employee, and friend of ours, Kortnie!Another part of my family, Tim and Lacey. They are Clara's parents from the last post... Only in Yellville will a costume include a real gun!!!My little cousin Cora is all grown up now... Yikes!There's always one... Braden. Good part is, he is a fantastic MMA fighter so he really can represent the Ninja outfit!

Brian (who also works for us on occassion), Sadie, and Kortnie. He and Obama almost had a throw-down!!! Good thing the Ninja is his son!An awesome Christian couple, Leslie and Keith. My newest friend, Ashley, and her husband of only like a month, Jason!

And of course, Zorro and his wife Elena... US!!!
