Halloween 2012

Here is Nathan's idea for Family Home Evening Treat:
A Ghost! Made out of a cup of cocoa and two chocolate chips! It's clever! It's innovative! Most importantly, it took about 5 minutes to make, which is about all we had left after carving pumpkins! Which, we don't have pictures of carved pumpkins. Only precarved pumpkins, of course. So imagine to yourselves the masterpieces that they were...

Halloween Fun

Trunk or treat here at the campground, fun crocheted pumpkins from Grandma Sue, Trick or treating with friends on the military base (my friend Miranda dressed up as "Super Mom"-- hilarious idea--check out the tool belt! Her cape is made of an apron!), A "spooky" dinner with "bone" breadsticks, "eyeball" salad, "ghoul" punch, witches' teeth, etc. It was the warmest Halloween Day in my memory-- no need to wear coats or to rush the trick or treating thing because of cold. I loved it. Nathan loved getting candy at each door. This was his first year of really getting that concept. He would turn his backpack to the door and say "trick or treat", and then turn forward and say "thank you". So funny.
