Halloween 2011

We had a fun October filled with fun Halloween activities here are a few of them.

This ghost family is made out of glue we squeezed glue onto wax paper and added black paper eyes and orange bows for the girls and a tie for the daddy ghost. I wish I had gotten a picture after we peeled them off the wax paper and hung them up but I didn't. I fond this idea on Pinterest  then on this blog post. They used googly eyes which would have been way cute too!

I also got this idea from Pinterest which linked to this blog post. I used tissue paper I ripped into strips and wrapped around fun size kit-kats. These went to school with Katie for all her classmates.


Yet another Pinterest item. Candy corn cookies, Katie decieded she loves candy corn so I thought these would be fun. This idea is found here. I used Alton browns sugar cookie recipe for the dough.


I made ghost pancakes for breakfast one day using chocolate chips for the eyes.



Here's our jack-o-lanterns this year, mine is on the left and John's is on the left.


This is the best picture we could get with the girls and pumpkins.
Halloween Day!!!
The girls were Pirates, Abi insisted they were pirate princesses. I  made their skirts and swords using this tutorial. They are made by Lindsey Bordman of Filth Wizardry, she has great projects to do with little ones. The shirts I used this freezer stencil tutorial from Dana at the MADE blog, I just found a skull and cross bones I liked and then followed her tutorial. I used glow in the dark fabric paint and they turned out awesome, after Halloween I put the shirts in with their regular clothes because they are so cute.
Abi had a good nap.
