Halloween recap

Halloween was pretty uneventful around here. We carved pumpkins, made Halloween cupcakes, watched Netflix, and handed out candy to trick or treaters.

Did you do anything fun for Halloween?

Halloween

Our Halloween was pretty uneventful. I usually bake some sort of Halloween treat, and this year I made a cake and some cupcakes. My sister and I had fun decorating them. I actually got my sister to pipe the face on the pumpkin cake, I thought she did a pretty good job!

 We had bought some pumpkins a couple of weeks ago but we kept either forgetting about them or not having time, so we didn't carve our pumpkins until the day of Halloween. I carved the TARDIS, my mom carved Olaf, and Hannah carved the Hogwarts crest. 

I thought they turned out pretty good!

As far as Halloween itself, I made some grilled pizzas for dinner and we watched TV. We were expecting to get a lot of trick-or-treaters, (since we live in a neighborhood) but we ended up only getting two small groups! We were a little surprised at that. I guess not very many kids go trick-or-treating anymore? Anyways, we had a bunch of candy leftover. Which I guess isn't really a bad thing, right?
