We hosted an OUTDOOR halloween party for our kids and their friends this weekend. The kids cam in costume, and we let everyone play on our new playset/swingset in our backyard. We made cupcakes and punch, and had no mess to clean up afterward! Try it at your house, the outdoor playset was a great idea! Kids in costume and outside fun- it was great! If you want to see the playset we got: http://www.playnation.com
I love this post, and am about to tweet the link from @RedBirdBIGDEALS. The “BOO” w/ the spider hanging is really cute. The spider detail makes it “pop”.
