We had a nice little spread.
We had popcorn ball ghosts, egg monsters, kiwi-steins, monster toes, and big mouths. All was yummy, but the popcorn ball ghost was the hit of the afternoon. My favorite was the kiwi-steins, but the kids did not like them.
We decorated felt pumpkins and painted pictures with edible paint onto brownies. Those turned out lovely.
Can you guess which 3 are Brooklyn's and which 3 are Jack's? Brooklyn's is a "brewja" - witch in Spanish...no clue if I'm spelling it correctly, a jack-o-lantern, and a vampire. Jack's are all race cars. I guess he didn't quite understand the Halloween part of the assignment. :)
My favorite part of the afternoon was watching them dive into the popcorn ball ghost. I turned around only to find them each head first in the ghost. Yummy!
The only thing missing was 3 little Bright children. Maybe one day we will all live close enough to have a BIG Halloween lunch together.
I have to say that I was a little disappointed in myself this year. Visit my post about last year's Halloween lunch and you will understand. I wasn't nearly as creative...Ros said, "This is your rebuilding year." I guess that's true...I've got to start planning now for next year. As Brooklyn was getting in the car to leave, she said, "Thanks Aunt Emily, and don't forget to do this again next year!" So she is already planning too. :)

You are such a FUN aunt! I liked the kiwi-steins too.:) What cute ideas-I bet the kids love coming to your house! Hey, remember those "almond joy eyes" you help me make years ago for Sams Halloween party?:)
(ps your hair looks BEAUTIFUL!! miss you Em!)
So fun Emily. I loved your ideas too, I need to make note of those to use next year at our party. We missed "the BYU student" at our party this year. ;)
Love you!!
BTW I LOVE that candy corn centerpiece with the black sticks. I already got my sticks for next year ;)
