80's Party


Our friends Ben and Sonja had an 80's Party the other night. Everyone went all out to dress up in their favorite fashions of the decade. Hollie was ecstatic that she found a pair of stone-washed jeans in her size at the Goodwill. Then remembering the good ole days of puffy paints, she created a New Kids on the Block t-shirt for her outfit, complete with bright makeup and huge hair.

Byron was a little more creative with his costume and decided to be a Rubik's cube. So, armed with a cardboard box, poster board, and construction paper, he made a hilarious costume. It took him a week to make it. He won a Chia Head at the party for the Most Unique costume.

Ben and Sonja threw a great party! It was a barbecue in their back yard and there was lots of tasty food. They also had an 80's trivia game and we played name that tune from the 80s. We had a lot of fun traveling back to the generation of our childhood/teen years. The evening ended with going inside to sing karaoke and channel George Micheal, Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Queen, Aerosmith, Richard Marx, Micheal Jackson and all our favorite 80's pop stars. We had a great time!
