Trick-or-Treat: Round #4

With all the Halloween events and activities we'd participated in leading up to Halloween night, I thought the boys may be over it and want to stay in for a quiet evening of passing out candy; HA--what a funny! They were beyond excited to put their conductor outfits on and join in all the trick-or-treating fun. They had a blast and we have enough candy to last us until next Halloween, seriously!

Weekend Roundup--Soccer Version

Since the end of September, our Saturday mornings have revolved around Jackson's soccer game. This is our first try at an organized sport and I must say, I'm a PROUD MOMMA!! Jackson has done such a great job (his first goal brought me to tears) and he's already asked to play again in the spring. The last game for the "Purple Dragons" is this Saturday so I've been working on a photo CD for all the parents of our season; here are a few pictures of all our soccer fun--GO PURPLE DRAGONS!!

Just a Little Bit of Boo

I went minimalistic on the Halloween decorating this year (not really sure why other than time). Before it's time to take it all down and move onto Christmas (Thanksgiving gets so little love), I wanted to share a few snapshots with you of my little bit of Boo!

Witch Hat Cookies

Jackson's classroom Halloween party is today and our contribution to the menu are the cute witch-hat cookies! A coworker recently turned me onto Pinterest (much more on Pinterest in another post) and I'm so glad she did--it's quite addicting! I found this cute idea there and decided to make these for the party. All it requires is Fudge Striped Cookies, Orange decorating icing and Hershey Kisses; how simple is that (no baking)!! The cookies were a big hit and I was super glad to have a cute, easy idea the kids (and parents) could enjoy!

Trick-or-Treat: Round #2

If you've been reading my blog for any amount of time you know that we practically LIVE at the Birmingham Zoo--by far, the best membership we've ever gotten. Well, each year there is an event during the month of October called "Boo at the Zoo" and we dare not miss it! The boys love the carousel (although, it rotates backwards for Halloween, not mine and Ray's favorite), the train and exploring the event for goodies. We had a great time, as we do each year....

A quick pose for the camera....

Enjoying the row of goodies inside the Trails of Africa....

Another quick pose for mommy....

Ready to head home so we can enjoy our treats!
