This last Saturday was Halloween as you may know. I had Aleecya from Friday night to Saturday night. For over 24 hours. So, while I had her, we went Trick-or-treating and celebrated Halloween!!
We started the weekend out Friday night by carving pumpkins! Mine is a ghost coming out of a window. (see pic below). I don't recall the insides being that gross, but I guess my memorie fades me!
Then, Saturday morning Aleecya woke up, and immediatly wanted her Dorothy costume on. So, that was the only outfit she was in! We started out by making cookies! First, we made Mummie cookies. Simply made roll-out cookies, iced them, then drizzle white chocolate over them. Then, put red hots on for the eyes! Easy cheesy, and oh-so-yummy!! Then, we made oozy finger cookies. Just take the same dough from the Mummie cookies, and shaped them like fingers. Then just put a dot of red "icing", then stick an almond on top. So cute!
Then, after Aleecya woke up from her nap at around 4, we left to go trunk-or-treating for my church. From there, we went to our local mall where they had games, face paintings, balloon animals, and of course candy!! I tried convincing Aleecya to get her face painted like a cat, but she wouldn't have any of it. As you can kind of see in a pic below, she was very excited about getting a balloon doggy! We, (yes, I say we because we both got the candy), got quite a bit of candy. Aleecya "played" some of the games they had here, and at about 7, we headed back out to our car. And yes, that is 3 hours of trick-or-treating. Quite a big haul for a 2 1/2 year old!! But, she stuck it out, and loved every single minute of it!!
As always, here are some pictures!! Sorry some of them are blurry, my camera battery was dead, so they were taken with my phone!
