In the Spirit

It is October 3rd and we are in the full halloween swing of things around here! I LOVE it! For dinner we came up with these super fun gems: Cheesy Pumpkin Dippers....the kids picked sugar pumpkins from Safeway for 50 cents, I hollowed them out, filled them with nacho cheese & served them with spooky blue corn chips! They LOVED it!

Then we put together our traditional 2 buckets of goodies to go "BOO" our friends. This year we gave Nutter Butter Ghost Pops & Halloween Oreo Pumpkin Pops with a container of "Witches Brew" (hot chocolate).

You can download the free printables for your own booing here:

Here is the hot chocolate label jpg:

This is what the directions say on the hot chocolate can:

Emma helped make this little token for her preschool teacher last night. Not my own idea but fun & practical all the same! Especially for a "random" teacher gift! :)

And to get our house fully ready for fall-I created a new gallery wall in our dining room, filled with pictures of the kids that I can replace with the changing seasons. I am pretty stoked about how it turned out.
