Growing up, instead of going trick or treating, we would have a little party at home. Mom would get us all some candy and we would watch a movie. Usually before Halloween, mom would make honey cookies and we would get to decorate them with candy corn and chocolate chips!! This was usually the only time of year we would get these cookies! So of course I have to continue this tradition with my own family! Unfortunately Kaitlynn and I were the only ones home to do this!! Which means we ran out of creative ideas…
The finished product. (Yes, we resorted to letters…)
This is our favorite cookie. (It makes more sense if you have seen the 30 Second Bunnies Theatre Twilight version… which is hilarious!)
This is what Ava did while we finished the cookies!!
We were able to make it down to Grandma and Grandpa Wilkey's to pick out our pumpkins this year!! We had a blast!!
All of the cousins.
We finally carved our pumpkins yesterday. We didn't get to them before Ryan had to go to work so he did his at about 10:30 p.m.
Ava hasn't been feeling well the last couple of days, hence her sad face!!
"What!?!"
This is a blurry picture but it's still super cute!! She even gave our pumpkin a kiss!
Kaitlynn showing us her mad pumpkin carving skills!
All finished!
Kaitlynn's pumpkin, Ryan's, and Mom and Ava's pumpkin.
Ryan has some mad pumpkin carving skills also!! I, as you can see, don't!! Thank goodness for those carving kits!
All lit up!
Every year for Ryan's work they get to dress up. The last couple of years he's been Napoleon Dynamite. Which has been awesome! But this year he decided to change it up a bit!!!
Ah, Ryan in his true form!!

Awesome!!! I love Ryan's outfit. We have the same carving kit, aren't they great! Ava's hair is getting so long, I'm sorry she isn't feeling good, I may have to take the blame on that one, Brent's has been coughing up a lung all week...not literally...just a lot. But she still is cute, even when she's sick.
I love Ryan's costume! Also I LOVE your pumpkin Jenna! I think it's so cute!
Cute pictures!
So, are the honey cookies a secret family recipe? If you are willing to share, I'd love it!
That's awesome Ryan! And I hope we're not to blame on her not feeling well! Your pumpkins and cookies are so cute!
Okay- one word for Ryan's costume...... E*P*I*C.. (just sayin..)
I love the pumpkins! You guys did a great job! Got to love the honey cookies. Wish I could eat one right now. Ryan's costume is great!!!
I love Ryan's costume. Is it a costume? I remember David telling you a loooooong time ago that his brother was a leprechaun, or that he looked like one.
