This is the most joyful place! Every one serves one another. Last night 🌃🌉🌙 there was a Halloween 🎃👻 gathering. The dinner was not catered, rather members brought delicious hot homemade chicken noodle soup, ♨ steamed 🚂 veggies🍅🍆🌽🍠, fresh green 🍃 salads, homemade hot pretzels and cornbread, lasanga, and for desserts: dark purple and bright orange rise crispy treats, chocolate 🍫💝☕🍪 chip brownies fresh from their ovens, strawberry🍓🍰 cream pie, small individually handmade pumpkin 🎃 pies, homemade cookies of various varieties. Yum! Every thing was fabuluous!!! I must forget to add that 100 or more hot 😍☕♨🔥🌞 dogs were cooked in the kitchen, so old and young 👦👧👯👱👲👸 alike could enjoy some dinner (healthy food too) , before the short 30-minute movie began. All of the rooms outside the Cultural Hall and surrounding it, were rooms filled with games and activities: 1. pictures were painted on children's faces, 2. bowling with the pins turned into ghosts, 3. throwing plastic orange rings on a witches black hat, 4. a dancing room with purple and 💕 pink lights flashing with fun children's music 🎶🎵 playing, 5. a 🎂 cake 🍰 walk room so if you were standing on the number that was called, you won a decorated cupcake, 6. the spook alley, which the teenagers helped adults make for the Halloween fun of all, 7. and other games too, where when you did the game in that room, you received a ticket, and afterwards, you could take your tickets to the Country Store in the foyer of the church and have them redeemed for items you wanted, little gadgets like yo-yos, decorated school pencil✏ s (Halloween, etc.), or other children's favorites. 8. Not to be forgotten, the Fishing Pole game with prizes 🏆🎁 next to the store. 9. Children posed in their finery - all decked out as their favorite character for this occasion, and their pictures were adorable🐶🐱🐹🐰🐯🐻!!! 10. The final event for the evening was trunk or treating in the back of the churches' oversized parking lot with their favorite bag 👜👝🎒; members decorated their trunks 🐜 , 👋 and handed out candy of every imaginable type, taste, flavor until their bags were all full-to-the-brim; the kids were all smiles and giggling😁😉! Another traditional Halloween 🎃👻 Ward Party🎉🎊💃🎈carried out successfully for the couple of hundreds of folks who showed up 👍🙋😈☝🆙🔼⏫🔺 to celebrate🎉🎊🙌👏, but also made it happen !!! 😀 Church 💒 of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Santa Clara Sixth Ward Party and others welcome) ☺😊😀😁😃😄😅😆😉😇
