My 2013 Halloween Party Shenanigans

From recent experiences, I think you could say I'm a yelp expert.  Several months ago, I visited the bowling alley, Jillian's at Universal Citywalk.  The service was appalling, so I do what I always do and wrote a yelp review.  A few weeks later I received a message on yelp from corporate about my review. They wanted to invite me back on their dime to experience the new and improved Jillian's since it was reportedly under new management.  Little did I know, they not only wanted to invite me back but wanted me to bring 19 of my friends.  I set the date around Halloween and began planning an epic Halloween party.

The night of my party drew near and the idea of a costume contest formed.  So not only was I planning the party, but then I had to plan a costume as well!  Trying to keep up with the flux of RSVPs was not easy, but I had a pretty packed list when the day of my party arrived.

The party was a huge hit!  Jillian's was ready when I arrived early at 9:30.  We were escorted to our lane where chips and salsa, wings, and a waitress was ready for drink orders.  We bowled the night away, most of us not doing so well (okay, maybe that was just me!) and munched on the great food.  Midway through the party, they brought us this awesome bucket filled with Halloween goodies!

Midnight came and we still had a few bowling rounds left.  The manager let us keep bowling until we were all finished.  I could not have had a better time and I think all my friends agreed by their goofy smiles on the below photos.  Thanks to my awesome friends for making the party a huge success!  I guess one of the best parts was, it was all free!  I should probably start planning my Christmas party...

On actual Halloween, I'll be going to the West Hollywood party that takes over Santa Monica Blvd.  I've been told I have to go at least once and this year seems like the year to do it.  I don't think I will dress up but perhaps I can throw on a Harry Potter beanie.  Should be an interesting experience!  Enjoy the pics from the party below!  I'll be in touch again soon, blog world.

Told ya we had goofy smiles by the end.

I couldn't help but take in the view from our parking spot in the garage.  

Gorgeous ending to an awesome night!
