Monday started classes for Aaron for licenses he needs to start applying for security jobs. So it was just the girls and me during the day for a few days! Monday we did have a movie night for Haunted Mansion. Well, we ended up watching The Addams Family instead, but we had fun either way. Ashlyn and I had a special themed dinner, but of course we saved the movie and snacks for when Aaron got home. :)
Ashlyn's classes went really well on Wednesday. She just loves her sign language class! She signs all the time at home and loves to practice.
The weekend was a bit blustery with Hurricane Sandy just missing us, but that was about it. Saturday Ashlyn and I made peanut butter dog biscuits and mini pumpkin pies for our friends and neighbors. Most of the neighbors we know (all but one family, I think) and my good friend have dogs so I couldn't forget them when I made treats. :)
Sunday we had our last Halloween movie night. I think we'll wait a couple of weeks before we have any more. :) We watched Spookley the Square Pumpkin. We had a pumpkin-shaped pizza
pumpkin pie shakes
and mini pumpkin pies.
We are working on a second pumpkin right now that we will post later. We're already planning on having at least 5 pumpkins next year. One for whatever Ashlyn wants to do with it, one for Aaron to pick what he wants, one for me, one with a cat on it, and one with a dog on it so we are all represented. I'm already excited. :) Now I'm off to bake a cake so I can make cake pops on Monday to sell at the craft fair Tuesday morning. I also need to make a few more bows! Next week will be very busy for us, but a lot of fun! Have a fantastic week.

Dawson and Ashlynn love Spookley! And they also love Monster House... I think it's a little scary for kids their age but they both want to watch it over and over. :/ Next year you should do a Monster House movie night! :)
