Finally, my Halloween post! We some fun things to celebrate this year, the Thursday before there was no school so I had a Halloween party and I didn't even take any pictures of it! It was a lot of fun. My favorite part was the cooking for this, it was a lot of fun and I got all of my ideas from here:
We had mummy dogs, monster apple teeth, witches wands, pumpkin shaped sandwiches and candy corn shaped sugar cookies (those were my favorite no frosting needed or cookie cutters!). We did a simple Halloween craft and then just let the kids play in the backyard, it was a perfect day.
Friday before Halloween there was no school due to Nevada Day so we went into town and did Keller's Hawaiian baby pictures to add to my wall. While we were there we met up with dad, dressed the kidlets in their costumes and went to Springs Preserve. It was fun, everything was decorated with witches, ghouls, ghosts, monsters... black lights and "spider webs" everywhere. There were stations for trick-or-treating. It started at dark so it made for a very late night!
We didn't get around to carving until Saturday night and we had fun with that and surprisingly Bryce did too! He hates carving but now that he found this tool to add onto his drill to get the guts out of the pumpkin he was almost excited!
We had Super Mario bros. this year, a pretty witch (as she called herself) and a cute little Dalmatian puppy.
Bryce's creation, our compromise for Brady he wanted Optimus, uh, no!
