Halloween has always been a very fun time around our house. Planning what to wear for costumes is also so much fun. Sometimes we start weeks early sewing clown costumes or hunting at the second hand store for just the right accessories. Another favorite activity is decorating the house to prepare for the many Trick or Treaters that would soon be banging on the door. As well as Pumpkin Spice cookies I like to make some Halloween Cake Pops.
