Halloween

School Harvest Festival

Ghost Lollipop Walk.  Ava helped me run this booth during the first part of the party.  She is such a good little helper and so patient.

I loved this activity.  The kids blew bubbles using a cup covered with a paper towel soaked in bubble solution and a straw put through a hole on the side.

Carmel apples.  Ava and I helped with this station too.

The kids playing Simon Says with one of the teachers.

Ava eating a ghost made from marshmallows.

Ava fishing for treasure.

This was Ava's favorite game.  It was a haunted mansion filled with candy.  The kids had to dig to find candy.  There wasn't a limit on how much candy each kid could get.  I think that is why Ava liked it so much.

 

Halloween Surprise from Papa & Nonna Kurz

On Halloween Ava got a tin filled with candy and popcorn in the mail.  She was so happy and she has been enjoying the goodies ever since.

 

Meatloaf Foot For Dinner

While looking through a Halloween cookbook Ava found this recipe for a meatloaf foot.  She thought it was funny and decided we should eat it for Halloween.  Ava helped me make it and she enjoyed eating the toes.

 

Trick-or-Treat

Since Ava got so much candy at the church and school harvest festivals we just went to our friends' house to trick-or-treat.  Ava only knocked on one door and then we spent the rest of the evening with them.  I don't think she minded since they had good candy and let her eat a lot of it.
