Thanksgiving Treats

I made Indian Corn treats for W's class at school. They turned out so cute! I found the idea in a good friend's (Melissa) mom's recipe book. Basically they are rice krispie treats with candy corn, choc. chips and peanut butter chips mixed in. Then, you shape into a corn cob and put a stick in it. They didn't look so hot at first but then when you add the presentation part with the paper and ribbon, they turn out really cute. And, honestly, what kid wouldn't want to eat something off a stick! Thanks Mrs. Adams for the idea!

Frosty Mania

The boys received Free Frosty coupons from someone on Halloween, so tonight we decided to go for our tasty treat. After giving T a few bites , we realized that surprisingly enough he had never really had ice cream until tonight. We created a frosty monster! He was rubbing his hand in the please motion like crazy. After each bite he would shake his head (we think he as having a brain freeze). He would just laugh like crazy and then beg for more. What fun!

Family Picnic Day

Today was family picnic day at W's school. S took the day off to join the fun. We had to have the picnic inside the fellowship hall due to the ground being wet outside. It was fun to meet some of W's friends he comes home talking about.
W and I spent the afternoon making our craft - a turkey with feathers to represent what he is thankful for. This craft was shown in Parents magazine and I just thought it was too cute. So W told me everything he was thankful for and we wrote on the feathers or printed a picture from the computer and let him glue. S gets credit for the turkey's feet.

Our friend Jack

W has a new little friend in the neighborhood. His name is Jack and his family lives just around the corner. We have been playing with him and his little bro Ben (who is a few months older than Tyler). All of them get along great. We went over to Jack's house to trick or treat and decided to all go around together. Those two boys were too cute! AFter the first house they had it down and were running to each house. Jack's mom took this pic - it looks like they've already had a bowl full of candy! W was so hyped up last night it took forever for him to go to sleep. In fact, I think S and I fell asleep before him.

On a side note: I gave into peer-pressure and changed my background. Everyone was doing it!
