Halloween at the Tilden's

Last night, we went to Steve and Donna Tilden's annual Halloween party in Gardner. Steve is one of the guys I work with. We had a good time and I took a few pictures.

Megan dressed up as a pregnant lady. This kinda freaked me out a little and reminded me a lot of Morgan when she was pregnant. I dressed up as the one-and-only Chuck Norris. Jason and Megan were the big bad wolf and little red riding hood, respectively. They one best costume.

Steve provided the keg 'o beer and various mixed drinks and shots while us guests brought food. Megan and I brought Taquitos, rice crispy treats, and Honey-BBQ Flavor Twists. There was a lot of other "creative" food though. There were sandwiches that looked like fingers, BBQ chicken wings with gauze on the end of them, bubbling rum drink, and a bunch of other "normal" food. By far, the most interesting was the kitty litter desert that Jason and Megan brought (see picture). This was a mixture of cake, tootsie rolls, and who knows what else to look like an actual cat box. It was even equipped with a genuine pooper scooper for serving. Disgusting, but good.

There was a scavenger hunt towards the beginning of the night where we split up into teams of two and went searching for things like candy, candle, garlic, battery, straw, etc. We somehow lost as the other team finished in 8 minutes. I think they cheated somehow. Anyways, the best part was how I got the straw. I notice a guy made out of straw sitting on someone's lit up porch. So, I slowly walked up and went to quickly rip some straw off this decoration and make my getaway. The problem was, for the life of me, I couldn't rip the straw off. So, I did what any man with a few beers in him and the desire to when a "hunt" would do, I bared down on this fake man with my teeth and tore off some straw. I then quickly retreated back down the street to the house with my soggy straw!
