My Favorite Holiday: Halloween!

Posted by Audrey on

Alright, let’s say my favorite non-religious holiday. I love Christmas Eve A LOT so they might tie…

Invite

For Halloween this year I threw a party and invited all the coolest people! (Last year we had a murder mystery party, but I was a little less dictator-like this year and allowed my guests to dress as they pleased… as long as it was a costume.)

So who showed up?
