Garner Family Monster Bash!

On Saturday October 29th my family had their Halloween party!!!

The details were amazing! Monster feet leading us to the door, monsters in the window and on the door, monster books, monster's hanging from the ceiling... just SO CUTE!!


My amazing parents (mostly my Mom) that put it all together!


The 10 adorable grandkids!


All of the Adults!


Eating our YUMMY Chicken Chilli Lunch!!


Reading a Monster book with Grandma!


Then we went on a scavenger hunt to find all sorts of gross stuff to make our Monster Potion!


Then we played a mummy game where we would unwrap the toliet paper onto ourselves until we saw money, then we would take the money, and tear it off and hand the roll to the next person!

This game we had 10 halloween shapes we had to suck up with a straw and put them into a cup!

This game each kid had a "Monster" on the end of his string... when the music stopped they had to pull their monster out of the white circle before the Monster Buster caught them!


The Bean Bag Toss is always a hit! It was such a fun party!!! I'm so glad everyone could come!!



I was in charge of the treat, and I made Monster eye balls (cake balls) and Monster Brownies (Peanut Butter Brownies) The Brownies were so yummy!! So I wanted to share the recipe for the frosting! Just make a normal batch of brownies, then put this frosting on top...


Peanut Butter Icing Recipe


Yields 2 cups
3/4 cup confectioner’s sugar

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter (Do not use old-fashioned or freshly ground)

1/4 cup salted butter, room temp

1/2 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup heavy cream (I used evaporated milk)
Put the confectioner’s sugar, peanut butter, butter and vanilla in a small bowl. With an electric mixer, beat the ingredients until they are creamy. Add the heavy cream and beat the mixture till it is soft and creamy.


If you want, add crushed Reese' Peanut Butter cups on top!! Oh YUM!!

Fun party! Your mom always comes up with the cutest things to do with the grandkids. I have to ask though, what was Jeremy's costume?
