Halloween Treat Bags

I hope everyone had a great Halloween! My husband and I couldn't be home to trick or treat because we had community wind ensemble rehearsal but we left a bucket out with lollipops and I have to say that I'm surprised my bucket was still there when we got home (even though all the lollipops were gone!) 

A few days before Halloween last week, I gave S and O treat bags with some fun things for them to play with. I decided it was better to give them the bags before so they could enjoy the activities since the day after begins turkey month. I got almost everything from the dollar section of Target - yay! Inside there was an activity book, spider decoration, mini M&M's, and a pumpkin puzzle. I also gave them glow sticks to use while trick or treating to be safe. They loved their pre-Halloween treats!

I was sad I didn't get to go trick or treating but I did enjoy my cut of the kids candy the next day! Brie spent the evening at my parents dressed as a princess. As you can tell, she "loved" her costume!
