Halloween 2012

I love Halloween!  Even though when I was younger, I was always sick with strep throat or an ear infection.  In fact, I got my tonsils out in the 5th grade 3 days before Halloween.  Being sick never stopped me from getting in the holiday spirit!  This year was no different.

(All pictures edited using Picmonkey Halloween effects!)

 I made special treats for my favorite little trick-or-treaters as well as their parents.  Here is a picture of all the goodies on the table.

 For the parents, I made Apple Cider cupcakes with Caramel Buttercream, Peanut Butter Cookies dipped in Chocolate with Sprinkles and Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread.  Yummy!

 For the kids, I made candy kabobs.  There are orange slices, gum drops, cinnamon devils and orange pumpkins.  They are inside a pretzel wrap and tied with black and orange ribbon.  We didn't have many trick-or-treaters nor did many special little ones come over.  I guess I will have to get their candy to them later!

 We didn't dress up but we made sure the dogs were festive.  Grady is sporting his red and white skull handkerchief...he looks very amused by it!

 Bella is wearing a very stylish skull sweater.  She looked like a plump little sausage in it!

And this is our favorite little trick-or-treater.  Isn't he a handsome little devil?  

Hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween!  I can't believe it is November and that we are suddenly in the holiday season.  Here we go!
