Halloween Update

Hi folks. Well we had a very successful Halloween again. The Kids seemed to enjoy themselves and we had 50+ at the door so a good night was had by all. I managed to carve 3 pumpkins, bake 110 cupcakes (some for my neice, not all for us lol!) and make up enough sweet cups for everyone who came. This is an update of what it all looked like!
