This is Halloween

This year we had many fun Halloween activities…and many of them included yummy food of all things.

We started our Halloween food fun by making marzipan candies. Ruth recently learned to make cute little candies that looked like fruits at a Relief Society activity. But since it was for Halloween, our little marzipan sculptures were themed appropriately.

Here is a close up. Ruth made most of them since I spent most of my time making the one on the right:

On Sunday, we went to Else’s house for dinner. For dessert we made Boo-rownies. Magnus really wanted a taste.

We also carved pumpkins that day:

Here is our finished products. The one on the skull is Pumpkin Magnus.

On Halloween we had our annual Halloweenie Roast which included hot dogs and grilled squash. And we watched Nightmare Before Christmas as we waited for trick-or-treaters. But we only had four of them. Which means more candy for us.

Magnus did not go trick-or-treating on Halloween, but he did dress up and crawled around. He even seemed to like the dinosaur hood.

Miles had the same costume! We called him a dragon...a baby dragon that hadn't grown his wings yet. :)
