Halloween Extravaganza

For those of you who are unaware, I go a little nuts over the holidays. The end of September approaches and I begin organizing weekend activities and planning food and treats and decorations (housework and other such responsibilities be darned). This year I decided to try planning daily Halloween activities for Luke, something I have dreamed of doing since I was little and my mom dyed our milk green one St. Patricks' Day. 

Some of the activities, like the finger puppets I painstakingly sewed from the book Five Little Pumpkins, have been duds. Others, like our jello googly eye blobs, were wildly successful.


Honestly, who doesn't love gooified sugar?
 Other successes:
Pom pom pumpkin patch with ice cream scoop


and his monster, the *only* stuffed animal he is allowed to color on.


When all else fails, a Halloween song off of Youtube is sure to do the trick.

  1. I love the monster idea! Cute! Looks like fun. I totally stole your bat decorating idea that you did last year, and it looked great! Dan even made a comment on how cool it looked, so you know it had to be good. Reading your blog makes me miss you! I hope all is well and that you're feeling good in your pregnancy.
