Halloween 2010
by Bingle on Nov.25, 2010, under Richard Bingle Family
It seems that some updates on Bingle events are falling in the cracks, some much further than others, so I am attempting to “fill in” one of those cracks…
This year not only did Rich dress up (with some borrowed items from his friend DJ) for dress-down Friday (the one before the Halloween weekend) he was able to board a haunted pirate ship (a two-story elaborate façade obscuring most of the house) diagonally across from our church for a party later that day. Since members of our church own the house, the party was made up of their friends, business acquaintances, and some church members. Rich successfully hid in plain site for quite a while as our church pastor complimented his costume and approximately some 20 minutes later realized who he was. The ship was much more impressive in person but there is a short youtube clip hereof what it looked like in the daylight. At night it was lit up and had various moving parts, but you get the general idea. The amazing part is that this all folds down and stores nicely in the garage, so I’m told.
Ashley attended Calvin’s masquerade party as a “marooned sailor” (the key being the maroon shirt).
Amber and Alyssa decided that since they were too old for the Chick-fil-A costume contest they would just concentrate on our youth group party’s contest. In a decision between the two of them for the “most creative” category, Alyssa won that prize.
Pictures have been in the gallery for a while, but since most of us don’t search through the gallery to find new pictures in our spare time, I figured I should let you know they were there.
Now to start figuring out what we will be next year…
