It's always fun when Grandma (and Luke) comes!

The kids were out of school Friday so I invited my Mom and nephew Luke to come up and do some Halloween stuff.   When she showed up she was dressed in her witch costume.  In her ward in Delta they have a "Witches night out" and all of the ladies in the ward dress up with cute hats and stuff and have a dinner.  I didn't ever think that sounded a little weird until I just now typed it, anyway, it was last night and she missed it so she dressed up today.  My mom is a really fun Grandma! She is always making stuff with the kids.  Today she made homeade play dough to make creepy fingers or noses with, fun!

We made pigs-in-a-blanket for lunch.  I haven't had these in a very long time!

 

The kids dressed up in our old costumes and we made skeletons out of paper plates.  They were not as easy I thought they would be.  My mom and Cameron did a lot of cutting out and the assembly was not fun either, but they turned out pretty cute.

 
  

Then...we decortated cookies.  These are the best sugar cookies.  Here is the recipe:
