Mummy Fun

The first Monday of October was our annual Welcome Halloween party. We had donuts and apple cider floats with guests to boot! My brother Chris, his wife Jennifer and their two fun boys Ben and Isaac were here to visit and they were game for all my Halloween weirdness. Of course, being totally lame, I forgot to take pictures. :( Apple cider floats are good though...yum. The second Monday in October brought our Monster Cups, which were deeeelicious! Week Three was The Day of the Mummy! Merritt helped me make Mummy Dogs, which were very tasty and which I couldn't get a good picture of to save my life.
Don't ask me why they are orange instead of white. It's some kind of camera overexposure or underexposure thing...whatever. The mummy dogs were good and the kids were excited.

Our after FHE treat went with the mummy theme:
The pictures I had seen online were so cute and the bandages were done with a basket-weave icing tip...whatever that is. Obviously I don't have one, but I wasn't going to let a little thing like that stand in my way. I frosted the cookies and "drew" bandages on with a toothpick. Voila! My kids thought I was a genius! The eyes are mini-chocolate chips. I thought they looked so fun! Yeah Halloween!
