Halloween: Holy Land Style!!

YIKES! It has been such a crazy week.  I can't believe how stressed I have been, but after countless hours of studying and three hours of final exams it's finally over!!  And, we concluded it with a bomb diggity Halloween party that pretty much describes the most epic night of my life!  After finals we all got into our costumes.  I dressed up as Bro. Muhlestein, Mike was 3-hole-punch Jim, and Robert taped a paper cutout of spongebob on his shirt (haha).  We waited in our rooms for the 15 or so kids to come trick or treating.  They were super cute.  Even our Judaism teacher got in on the fun, and brought his kids along :)  Afterwards we went upstairs for dinner; I can't believe how creative and resourceful everyone was with so little to make costumes out of!  There were some really cool ones.  Andrew, Brant, and Justin dressed up as ancient conquerors (Sennacherib, Nebuchadnezzar, and Shishak); Tessa and Stephanie were ghost busters; Jessica wore a whole bunch of balloons; Kelsey Woods was a tree; and Megan dressed up as Robert Buss.

After dinner we had a group picture and then did a whole bunch of little activities (kind of a carnival deal), including biting apples in teams, a cake walk, carving vegetables (we don't have pumpkins lol), and face painting.  It was a lot of fun, everybody was in a great mood, and we're all thrilled to death that finals are over.  We ended the evening voting for best costumes and everything, then we had a dance party in the Oasis.  It was a good day!

Thanks so much to Meredith and Tahna for being such great (and patient!) study buddies, love you guys :)  Now it's back to having a life, I'm going to go buy a shawarma tomorrow!
