Halloween Festivities

Ryleigh's Pre-K class went to the pumpkin patch last week.  Devin took the morning off so he and Bailey could go.  They each brought home a pumpkin and insisted that we carve them.  You can see how small they are.  Devin said the patch only had little pumpkins.  What kind of pumpkin patch only grows mini pumpkins?

Bailey was not going to dig hers out as you can see by the look on her face.

Ryleigh wanted a Hello Kitty carved into hers but of course, all the patterns are made for normal sized pumpkins.  There was no convincing her otherwise.  So I had to free hand it.  Not my best work but she was happy with it.  Bailey was easier to convince that she just needed a simple face on hers. 

I totally forgot about making Halloween cookies until my sister posted pictures on her blog.  So today after picking up the girls, we ran to Walgreens for some frosting and came home to make some tasty sugar cookies. 
Bailey decorated one cookie and then decided it was too messy.  So she sat there while Ryleigh and I finished, licking her hands over and over trying to get the little bit of frosting off.  She was the only one that was going to eat that cookie.

The girls have already been to two Trunk or Treats but I didn't get any decent pictures of them in their costumes.  Hopefully they cooperate better tomorrow evening.
