Getting in the Halloween mood!!!

I'm getting so excited to take Ethan & Haylee out trick-or-treating this year :) Ethan is going to be "Bob the Builder" this year - we're not sure what Haylee will be, but I'm hoping to get to Wal-Mart tonight and see what kind of halloween outfits they have there. I'm having a hard time finding the right size for her. So wish me luck :)

We're going to be making Halloween Cookies tomorrow, and then for FHE on Monday, we'll be making a "haunted castle" that you can buy and put together as a kit, just like you would a Gingerbread house, from Wal Mart.

Last year we found the most perfect area for trick or treating. Families are riding around on hayrides & golf carts. People are outside on the porches handing out candy with their families - it's so great! A very safe/family oriented area and you see kids with parents all dressed up just happy to be together and having fun. It was great!!! What are your plans for Halloween?

We're on the same page! We just made halloween cookies today, and we did the haunted castle kit from walmart- we love halloween!!! I would love to make some hats for you guys! email me the head circumference measurements for the hats you want, along with colors you'd like for each. I am in the middle of making a bunch for some craft fairs, so it will be a couple of weeks before I will get to them, but I would be happy to makes some. So, email me and we can talk more details! m.k.e.lewis@gmail.com

Great ideas for Halloween! How did the haunted castle turn out? Did you find a costume for Haylee? Ethan is going to be such a cute Bob the builder :)
