Candy Crash

I'm sure teachers everywhere today are feeling the candy crash of students of all ages.



Last night my girls went trick-or-treating too. There are 16 & 12 ...it changes from year to year if they are participating or not.

We spent part of our afternoon carving the annual pumpkins. Katie picked an owl and Ivy picked "Grr" from a cartoon she likes. They decided this year they wanted to attempt the scored pumpkins instead of the traditional carving type. I think they both did quite well.

I {heart} pumpkins!

I've been really into pumpkins this season. I tend to buy and make more each year adding to my collection. I find pumpkins are great items that plays double duty when it comes to decorating!

They are perfect for October as Halloween approaches, but can be left out to carry your decor through Thanksgiving. These are a few of my favorites..old & new!

Party Time!

My youngest daughter is excited to be hosting her 1st ever Halloween party!! She plans to invite some boys too, so it should make for an interesting evening of spooky fun.

I used the fun Bo Bunny Halloween line "Whoo-ligans". I'd been looking for just about any excuse to use this line of paper. She was thrilled with my invitation design and they are all tired, enveloped, addressed and ready to be delivered to her friends! I guess she's a bit excited :)
