Halloween Cookies









We are having a great month. This is our favorite cookie recipe-they are really great cookies.
We added orange and black chocolate candies to dress them up for a Halloween.
Gotta love bulk barn!

Happy Thanksgiving 2011

And my boys even let me dress them in nice Thanksgiving-y colours!

Yes, from the outside we do look quite normal. Read on.


Nice happy family, Pa holding baby awww, so cute.

Look closely- see big brother.

What in the world is he doing??!!

Looks like someone got his head stuck in a frame. Big Brother was not happy.

Frame removal was simple. Good thing we had a Dr. in the house.




Here was my masterpiece!



Seriously, I had been dreaming this up for weeks!

The Chef had to help me with the feet and peppers. Shiny side out!

This is was my kind of bird!

Delicious!

First a few "ffff's" for Mommy.

I am sooooooo proud!




18






My nephew turned 18.

Making boy cupcakes apparently does not involve purple.

I tried to make them as BAD as I could.....

I thought the skull fruit cups were quite bad also.

Guess I need to brush up on my boy-parties!


book order









Your 1st book order.

You are 3.5.

You poured over the pictures of the books.

I said as a reward for going to school everyday you could choose one book.

You found a Scooby Doo book with zombies and scary scare crows. You circled it 10 times. You love Scooby and scary scare crows. I left the room to get your brother. You also circled a Star Wars book about 15 times.

You didn't ask. You didn't whine. You just put the lid back on your pen and smiled.

Your Dad came home and saw the book order form. We both smiled because we are so proud you love books. We love that you know what you want. Your Dad circled a few more books and wrote a rather large check.

Your 1st book order.


Hey locals. You know whooooo you are. RSVP below.
