Every year Grandma has the boys over to decorate cookies or cupcakes for Halloween. Seth and Ryan went over on Saturday afternoon to decorate cupcakes. Grandma found the perfect candy for the boys to use; gummy body parts, eyeballs, etc. They had a great time making their cupcakes as gross as they could. Seth made one that looked like a mouth eating an arm or something. Yum! They also made Pokéballs and other "boy" things. There isn't a better way to spend an afternoon at Grandma's though.
Kyle & Caleb go to Grandma's house after school two days a week so she decided that they could decorate cookies after school one day. The first day they made spider cookies out of Oreo's and pretzel sticks.
The next day they made ghost cookies with Nutter Butter's and mini Hershey Kisses. While decorating the cookies Caleb said "These Kisses look like a volcano. They look just like Krakatoa." When my mom was telling me this storoy I had to ask what she was talking about. I had not heard of this volcano. I was feeling pretty stupid at this point since my 4 year old knows more about volcanoes than I do. Turns out he learned all about the volcano from none other than Spongebob. And they say TV turns your brain to mush.
The cookies turned out so cute and the boys had such a good time making them. I know that this is a tradition that they will not want to give up any time soon. I wonder if Eryn will get to participate next year. I bet her cookies won't have gummy body part dangling from them.
