Halloween Day 11

October is such a fun month. Not to mention extra busy! Brodie has had a fever and being feeling a little off the past few days because of his flu shot and so he has been sleeping in until 9:45 (nice!) but then this morning he wanted me to know that he is feeling better so he decided to wake up at 6:50 (not so nice). So I whipped up a batch of pumpkin chocolate chip muffins this morning. I got the recipe from my friend Tamber a while back. They are so moist and delicious. They scream harvest time! Yummm!



1 pkg spice cake mix
1 can pumpkin the smaller can I think its 15 oz
some mini chocolate chips

Mix dry cake mix with pumpkin, spoon into greases muffin tins and cook for as long as the box says for muffins (18-20min at 325 )

Enjoy some warm delicious muffins in the morning! The house is smelling oh so wonderful this morning.

We are also getting ready once I get out of class to head over to the GA national fair. I am so EXCITED!! :)

Halloween Day 10

I really need to make sure I always have my camera with me...dang. I made mummy dogs today for lunch. Reese though they were so cool! I will be making them again before the end of the month. We also had sugar cookies from Pillsbury that are all Halloweeney. Sooo excited for tomorrow. We are going to the GA national fair!!

Halloween Day 9

So I had taken pictures of our adventures today but when you dont have your SD card in your camera is doesnt do you any good. We went to a Fall festival today at Chick fil a and also went to see Spookley the Square pumpkin at the movie theater. Which was AWFUL by the way but the kids loved it. I wanted to poke myself in the eyeball. The kids had a great time. Brodie is a little under the weather. Since it is coming upon flu season the kids got flu shot yesterday and Brodie has had a fever all day and has been super cuddly. I hope he feels better tomorrow.

Halloween Day 8

We are trying to have a fun and fulfilling October so we are broadening our horizons and taking Reese to a play. We are going to see If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. Hopefully she will enjoy it.

Edit: It was awesome ...WE LOVED IT! It was so cute and we had a great time!

Halloween Day 7

Today we did a simple Halloween craft. Ripped orange and green paper makes a pumpkin. Reese loves playing this glue and doing crafts. I drew her a little pumpkin to fill in and she took it to the next level and made a mini baby pumpkin on the right hand corner. Too cute! She told me it was her mommy pumpkin and baby pumpkin. Shes on the mommy, baby kick right now where everything has a mommy and a baby. And of course kids love to use 800 pounds of glue.

Halloween Day 6

Today we did an afternoon activity of Halloween Mad Libs for kids. Reese enjoyed them. We did a few pages today and plan on doing more throughout the month.

Halloween Day 5

Today bust out your Halloween books and lay them our for the whole month for you kids to read through and make sure you are reading them every night!! We love spookley the square pumpkin and a really cool Halloween pop up book. I need to be adding A LOT more book to our Halloween collection. We have a few but not 31...yet ;)
