Mom's Halloween Fun!

Autumn is my favorite time of year. Halloween is one of my top two holidays. I don't dress up, just enjoy it through the kids. There isn't the pressure of a "picture perfect" Thanksgiving or Christmas, just lots of fun! Even though we are home sick this week, I thought we'd start the fun tonight. I told the kids to leave me alone for a few minutes in the kitchen and I would whip up a Halloween snack. I took out pretzel rods and a green colored cheese dip, then told the kids to come get some "boogers on a stick." Their responses were as follows:
Lily giggled.
Sam said, "Yuck, no way!"
Eli cried.
Isaac double dipped and chased crying Eli around the table until Eli was wearing boogers.
Nate said, "I want boogers." After being prompted to taste it, he said "yucky" and spit boogers all over.
Well, it was fun for me!
Just wait until I make worms! mmmmmmm
