Halloween sort of crept up on me this year. {pun intended} We’ve been really busy enjoying life with our three little ones, but this month has been a doozy. I am always wishing for more time to have fun with the kids. We did get to carve our pumpkins earlier this week. Did you see our cute Olaf pumpkin we made? Next on my Halloween bucket list was making treats for the kids. Mrs. Freshley’s had my back with this super easy craft/recipe. HERE are all the recipes.While I did not tackle the Batty Pops, we used maple frosting and orange sprinkles to make a delicious Pumpkin Bell. It was easy, tasty, and of course a big hit with the kids. That’s what it is all about for me. I always have a holiday bucket list that is more then I can handle, but there is always the next holiday to try the ideas we didn’t get to this year. Pinterest isn’t going anywhere, those ideas are pinned for later.

November 10, 2014 at 11:33 pmMy Halloween tradition for the last 20 years has been me slowly eating all the candy, lol, because we lived in a place with almost no trick-or-treaters. This year we had moved. We went through over $40 of candy in less than an hour! Kids were swarming!
