Holy cow, what a party! I wish you could have been here because it was a lot of fun. A.LOT.
I think the only person who didn't enjoy it was our neighbor, who started complaining at 10:15 and who called the police at 11:30. Such a spoilsport. I am nearly 45 years old and am the most goody-two-shoes person in the world so having the police arrive was fairly traumatic for me, but everybody else laughed it off so I got back to the business of having fun. We'll have to deal with that neighborly situation later, but Friday night was about Halloween fun!
The party, in photos...

but it was so fun to see everybody's reaction and to dance samba. Well worth the police visit!)
