Well, we’re not throwing it too far back this week.  But, this is honestly the first that I’ve sat down to the computer to download pictures from Trick-or-Treating!  Whew!  The night flew by.  I mentioned that we were down at my sister’s this year.  This has actually become quite the tradition that started with my niece’s first Halloween.  (She was a sweet pea!) Now, my sister graciously invites the whole family over for dinner and trick-or-treating.  Since this year it was on a Friday, we turned it into an all-night event!

Check out the cute invitation she sent!

My [small] contribution was this cheese ball; I’ll share the recipe soon!

My sister also made this delicious pumpkin dip.

And, no gathering at my sister’s house is complete without. . .CUPCAKES!  Y’all remember she made Munchkin’s Birthday Cake and Cupcakes, right?  She is a seriously talented baker!

Another Halloween tradition:  Ghosts (or Ghostes, as my niece and nephew say; how cute are kids’ phrases?!)

One Pinterest Fail I will share with you:  Black Widow cocktails.  Have y’all seen these?  They are made with black vodka, which apparently is non-existent.  My sister and I both tried to track some down and couldn’t.  We tried to improvise by coloring some vodka ourselves, but it turned out blue, and the drink itself was nothing spectacular.  Boo to that!

Pinocchio loved Trick-or-Treating this year!  My mom made his costume.  (She actually made all 3 of the grandkids’ costumes!)  Didn’t she do an awesome job?!!

Halloween is always pure chaos, so somehow we managed to miss getting pictures with all the grandparents.  I think there’s a picture of at least Hubby and me with Munchkin floating around!

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!
