2019 Hocus Pocus Halloween Party at Southern Comfort

 It's a Bunch of Hocus Pocus!


We had a terrific Halloween Party on October 29th in our Hall. We started at 5:30 PM. Sloppy Joes and Chips were served for $1 and everyone brought a salad, veggie or dessert to share.

We had a photo booth and many people took advantage of it and we will forward their pictures to them. 



















The table that was able to answer a Halloween Trivia question started the dinner line.  









After dinner there was a Mummy Wrapping Game that was fun to watch. 










The it was time for the Costume Contest. Everyone lined up and tried to persuade the judges to vote for them.












AND THE WINNERS ARE:


Ken and Terry Hause


BECKY BERWICK


KEN LONGWORTH





Then Edith and Diego were there to entertain us and some of us just had to dance!




Notice the little pumpkin on Edith's belly. She is expecting and due in January. It is bad timing for them with all their dances and Happy Hours. However, they are young!

Sandcastle Days 10-5-19

 

Today we went to one or our favorite festivals, Sandcastle Days at South Padre Island. They just have so many wonderful sand artists from South Padre and vicinity but also from out of state and out of country.  We like to arrive mid-day so that the sand artists have been working for awhile and we can see what they have done so far. Then we walk around later to see how the whole piece turned out.

It is a perfect day today for the festival so it will be a great success!


These are the entry advertisements done in sand art!
