Spooky Halloween Dinner

We are going to take a break from our “make your own” series to post a few halloween ideas that you still have time to do before Halloween….

This post comes from my sister, Emily.

Seriously, she is the cutest mom. She throws the cutest parties and hosts the most fun dinners, all for her kiddos. I love that she tries hard to make holidays special.

You still have time! Halloween is 6 days away, so run to the grocery store or use what you have around the house to make Halloween special for your family.

………….

This year we branched out and invited a few friends over. It made the night a lot more fun and we will definitely do it again next year!

Lila and Abby cut out and penned the labels. I love them (labels and girls).
