Halloween Weekend

It was fun to be in our own home this year for Halloween. I thought I would celebrate by making fun Halloween meals.

For lunch on Friday we had monster sandwiches and owl salad.
For dinner on Friday, we had Silly Face Soup
For Lunch on Saturday, we had Snake
and for Dinner we had Spider Soup
I think the kids liked it, but I had a ton of fun doing it, thanks to Pillsbury!

On Friday we carved pumpkins with my family and had the kids dress up. Matt and Jodi were the only cool parents who dressed up too.
Connor wasn't so sure at first about all the guts inside. The girls wouldn't even touch it.

Sydney wanted a Fairy pumpkinand Connor wanted a Dinosaur
Matt's was probably our favorite of the night with the picture cast behind the jailer.

And then of course, you can't forget the trick-or-treating! It actually wasn't very good in this new neighborhood, but on Sunday we found out why. They were having a ward trunk-or-treat, so all the kids and all the candy passer-outers (it's a word now) were at the church. Oh well, the kids really don't need that much candy anyway. We, on the other hand, were left with a lot of left overs!
We might be in trouble with this pretty girl.
My sister Marie came with us
Connor wanted to try on Dad's wig.
