Food prep for our Halloween dinner tonight.  It's become a tradition that the boys and I cook dinner on Halloween.  (it involves using a lot of spiders eyeballs and generally gross looking stuff :)  So I will do a bit of prep and then we will put things together at their house at dinner time.  Then of course it will be time for trick or treating.  Halloween has always been one of Hudson's favorite holidays! 

Have a safe and

Happy Halloween!
