Wanda Witch 2014

I look forward to Wanda Witch for an entire 11 months of the year (I like to take month off from the previous one before I start planning the next one). I've hosted it with different friends over the years, and this year Molly stepped in as the new witch.


The teams were amazing with all their pranks and bribes and this year was probably the best one yet. One girlfriend brought us by a treat every night!
 Or there was the epic battle of the bad photos between Rickie and Kristin that ended up with the police being called.
 
 And when the poor Ducloses couldn't figure out why everyone's Halloween decor and doormats kept showing up on their porch.

Finally the party was here and the team costumes and spirit did not disappoint.

The Walking Red

The Smashing Pump-Cons

Children of the Corn
 

The Valorous Verde Villians

The Blue Haired Banshees and Boogey Men

The Price is White

We started off with Minute-to-Win-It type games to stagger the teams leaving. Things like Candy Coroners where you took shots of candy corn until you found one with a star.
Fangs a Lot where you memorized a Halloween poem and recited it with fangs in your mouth.
Ding Dong the Witch is Dead where they had to stack Ding Dongs ten high.
Spell Checker where they corrected spelling and grammatical errors.
I Scream Sundae, which was basically mashed potatoes, chocolate syrup, crushed chips, whipped cream and sprinkles!
 
And finally Witch Came First where they put the Witch movies in order of their release year.

Once the teams were off they ran all over town solving riddles and completing tasks. One clue led to a pool where they had to dive down to find their clue. One team misinterpreted the clue and ended up swimming in some strangers pool!

One clue led to our house where our daughters played witches who gave nothing away (they had to set up a tent before they got their next clue).

They had to find one of my old babysitter's at the movie theaters and replicate a cake at my girlfriend Sara's.
The teams also had to grab a certain drink at Sonic and traipse along the canal to find a Gingerbread house in the forest. The last clue led them to Molly's where they had to complete a puzzle to get the ending location address.

In the end it was looking to be a footrace between the Red Team and the White Team.

WINNERS!! Of the most coveted gold spray painted barbie around.


Giving the 2nd place their prize for winning a little side game The Price is White had put together.

We then ate and chatted while we waited for the rest of the teams to arrive.

 Dustin is now the proud owner of some sweet Wanda Witch swag.
