Scenes from Halloween 2014

It’s late. I’m tired. You won’t know that it’s late because I schedule my posts out sometimes. And you probably won’t even see this when I post it anyway, and is anyone actually seeing this at all? But, I digress.

While the kiddo’s costume was secured way back in July, everything else came together kinda late, with our last pumpkin being carved a day or two before the big day. I usually try to have it together earlier than that.

On top of that, I didn’t have the energy to make up some story about how the Halloween fairy will come in at night and take away all of the candy and in exchange leave a gift. I just told the girl, “hey, you’re not eating all that candy, so why do’nt you give me most of it, keep a few pieces, and in exchange I’ll buy you a toy”

“Okay.” Wow. that was easy.

Snacks

Snacks from the kid’s class party. I didn’t do these. A very cool hip mama of a cool hip kid in class did these. But, aren’t they clever?

zombie cookies

The kiddo asked if we could make zombie cookies. As it turned out, earlier that week I was at Cost Plus and saw a box of, you guessed it. So, I bought them when they went on sale and we did these, actually finally frosting them the day after Halloween. Fun times.

Jack

Jack, from “The Nightmare Before Christmas”. I had considered the logo from “Ghostbusters” but decided it was too complicated.

She’s wearing a hoodie underneath that Elsa costume, because, actually the cold does bother her. Her mother, too

Fun times.
