Pumpkins and Bagels!

Ally has decided not to trick or treat this year. She wants to go to gymnastics practice instead. This is her choice and we support it.
So instead of our usual pre-trick or treat gathering we hosted a group of Ally's school friends for breakfast and pumpkin carving.
It was a blast! 

 
Our table scape!
 
Rice Krispie treat monsters!
 
Ally made the sign.

 
Pretzel sticks.

 
A wall of bats again.

I made donuts before the party and iced them with black frosting!
 
 The living room.

 
The bat(h) room. There are 200 black bats taped to the walls of our bathroom.

 
Becky and I with our puking watermelon! 
Ally and I decorated the hard boiled eggs with faves yesterday.

 
After some food we laid out tarps on the front porch and each kid chose a pumpkin and the carving started. 
 
A couple decided to paint theirs. In the end some painted and carved. Above is Sonya and Sofia.

After most of the guests left we let Cloey out in her witch costume. She was quite happy in Ally's room surrounded by Ally and her friends.
 

Cloey was so good. 

It was a lot of fun and maybe a new tradition for us.
