Sauder's Costume Party

Yesterday was the very anticipated day for the annual Sauder Costume party.
Ben & Taunya came over here to get ready for it and Rhoda immediately took Addyson out to see the new pony.



Jack got to try out the Johnny-jump-up and LIKED it.

Below are the party pictures and WHAT a PARTY that WAS. The Sauders put on a amazing party, one not to be missed with good food, prizes for the best costumes, and a scary walk down in the meadow. Check out the nose on the lady below.


Above is Jozef and Tina as the original Redneck couple and below is the Sauder family.


Above is Rachel as the lady that always loved the grinch with the her husband David as the Grinch. And check out the picture below: The NERVE of Spark and Rhonda to show up as Friesian Exterminators, and then come dressed in Friesian Fur and Feather.


Dorothy & and her cute little dog Toto were joined by the scarecrow that always wanted a brain.

Of course the Wizard of Oz theme wouldn't be complete without some Toto Treats.

Ben's family were the windblown family from Bloomington.

Philip was the plastic surgeon and poor Anna the patient. Check out the huge amount of FAT taken out of her belly.

Rebekah's dress was designed and sewn from start to finish by Anni her sister. Anni used coat hangers on the corset and curtains for the dress.

Check out the back of the dress.


Great job Anni. For some reason I couldn't find any pictures on my camera of Anni. She was unrecognizable and we all thought she was a Sauder boy walking around.
Kari was the Hebrew Slave mom Mariam and Noel was the Egyptian princess that raised Moses.

Karin is in the picture below, NOW SHE was really hard to recognize until she turned around.

Below are Jenny, Willow and Tate:

Johnny Hoerr was Zorro, Serena was his wife and their two daughters were 2 of the 3 musketeers, they would say, "don't mess with the dress!" to whoever walked by.

Andrew and Rachel came as dirt bikers, below is Andrew in his REAL biker outfit with REAL scratches on the protective gear from a few of his many falls.

Andrew & Rachel's daughter the butterfly below:

Luke did a great job with his costume.

Logan was the swamp thing that just climbed out of the lake.

Jessica designed and sewed her costume all by herself too. Such talent in this family.

After the scary walk, it was time for the greatly anticipated judging results.
The best costume for the under 12 girl category was Noel:

The 12 and under boy category was Isaac but he had left so the next in line won but I missed the winner. It should have been Luke but we think he had taken his costume off so he didn't get many votes. The family win was Ben's family, He stated, "we BLEW away the competition:

Rhoda won the women costume category:

Spark won the men's category by default. David Sauder as the Pirate Jack really won by a landslide he was so realistic but graciously gave it to the second place winner Mike as the scarecrow except Mike left so Spark got the prize.

Jozef and Tina won the couple category with their portrayal of a redneck couple.

Addyson found Tina's fake cigarette and knew just where to put it, her parents are going to have to watch her.

Below Diane's is comforting Willow after the very scary walk.

We all had a great time last night. THANKS SO MUCH SAUDERS for this fun annual party.
