Halloween is one of my favorite holidays.  I think it stems from the fact that one of my sister's birthday is today.  Because of that, Halloween was always extra special growing up. 

 

But she's a senior in college now and my two youngest sister's are 15 and 17.  Not exactly trick or treating ages anymore.  Even though there was no sisterly trick or treating, the 3 of us still in town managed to dress up.  I think that made my parents proud!

 

And there was this little storm called Sandy.  I was super prepared for her and took down all of my beloved Halloween decorations before she hit.  That statement is huge considering I put out almost as many Halloween decorations as I do Christmas decorations.  With cold temperatures and wet conditions, my Halloween decorations never did get back outside. 

 

Guess it's time to decorate for Christmas!!! ;)

 

 

Anway, I did manage to make some Halloween cookies.

 

Here are just a few!  They're my favorites!! You'll have to forgive my horrible pictures.  It's rather difficult to get proper lighting when there's a Tropical Storm raging outside!
