Did Someone Say Par-tay?

Posted on November 5, 2014 by Ammo

Every year I host an Epic Halloween Party at my house, where all the party goers are required to dress up within a certain theme. This year’s theme was dead people, as in celebrities, historical figures, or characters that are no longer living or met their fate in a movie or tv show. As you already know, I dressed up as the American Icon, Evel Knievel.

Dad decided to dress as Bernie from Weekend at Bernie’s and Mom was Ellie from Up.

One of these years we keep saying we’ll all dress up as a group costume – maybe next year will be the year!

I was really excited when my best friend Trooper showed up to my party though, dressed as the equally as famous, Rin Tin Tin.

Well before my time, I did have to google a photo of him – but he sounded like a pretty cool dog!

And just like most dogs, Mr. Rin Tin Tin had a thing for Evel Knievel helmets – mostly because my head resembled one great big tennis ball!

You know it’s going to be a good party when Rin Tin Tin and Evel Knievel have a wrestling match before it even gets started!

My party ended up being a smashing success – even if I did have to wait in the refreshment line exceptionally long!

And by the end of the night, this Evel Knievel was pooped! I better rest up though, because it will be time for my annual Halloween Party again before I know it!

Happy Halloween!
