Halloween Cookies

We love Halloween at our house. I think that it is because my Mom always made it so fun when I was growing up. She seriously did the most amazing things. I remember one Halloween she actually dressed up with a witch (including a nose and wart!) She then read to us Halloween stories. I loved it! Good memories. I really hope that I can be that great of a Mom some day!

Mmmmm treats my favorite.

Look at all of the treats!

What a silly!

Hunter and Lincoln loved the idea of icing the cookies themselves. It honestly took everything in me to let them do it. I think I am a control freak. There was icing everywhere! They had so much fun. They both just piled as many candies on their cookies as they could.

Palmer is such a perfectionist with the things he does. He was pretty into decorating "Frankie." The kids all love to do art projects, color and be creative.

Armed and dangerous.


Delicious frosting.

Sasha has gotten really good about being inside. She just likes to be near everyone.

My version of "Frankie." We had to give all Halloween creatures nice names because my kids were afraid of them. We have "Hazel" the witch, "Sammy" the skeleton and "Frankie" Frankenstein. I have had to be really creative to be able to put up Halloween decorations since my kids get scared really easy.

Eating the cookie is the best part.


Some of the finished products. We took them to our neighbors so I didn't eat them all!
