TOTALLY '80s!

Some of you may remember reading about the Disco roller skating party we hosted last October.  We had a such a great response that we decided to do it again this year, only with an 80's theme.  It was a late party (9:30-11:30pm), and we got a few snap shots in our fairly dark house prior to leaving.  I LOVE the "red eye" in these shots.  Makes it extra '80s-like, don't you agree? 



My sister dressed in a complete outfit from her high school days (her sweater actually has "Mindy '85" on it.  Her hair is awfully similar to what I remember it looking like in 1985 (dyed blond in front, as well).  Awesome. 

Rob's fashion choice of "Wham meets Mork" as he called it:


We didn't have quite the turnout we had last year (lots of calendaring conflicts, like our Stake Fair--bummer!) but those that came really got into it and had a fun time (at least everyone seemed to).  Here is most of the group toward the beginning of the night:


Remember this guy from last year?

He never disappoints on coming up with a hilarious costume.  He and his wife are very gutsy--that fanny pack?  Wow!

The kids had fun dressing up in some of the costume pieces last night.  Liv was being so funny; it was hard to capture what she was doing with still photos, but let's just say she loved the attentive audience:

Can't believe that we are nearing the end of October!  It's almost Halloween!

Awesome! It makes me want to be your neighbor/friend, but then we'd be in the same ward... anyway, I might just have to steal the idea. I love it.

Oh, and looking at the daring guy's shorts... I'm glad he's wearing the fanny pack! ; )

Awesome. I think having just a few people who are willing to look ridiculous frees up everyone else to really go for it. Bless that guy's heart.
