Halloween is coming and I am sure you are in need of an easy sweet treat.
I have already shared my sprinkle cookie recipe but I decided to mix it up and make these simple cookies into a Halloween treat.
 
 
 
What you will need:
1 box of chocolate cake mix
1 small box of chocolate pudding
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup peanut butter chips
2 tablespoons Halloween sprinkles
 
(keep in mind you can easily make whatever flavor you want, these just happened to be perfect colors for Halloween cookies!)

In mixing bowl combine all ingredients. Drop spoonfulls onto greased baking sheet.
Bake 8-10 minutes.
 
 
Enjoy!

Cousin Time

We had so much fun the past couple weeks getting to spend time with Justin's brother, his wife, and their 2 cuties while they were here visiting!
Brynlee and Ellie LOVED every minute getting to play with their cousins Molly and Todd.
 
Right before Molly came here she broke her foot
so Brynlee wanted to make her a sign and send her a picture!
 
Playing at the mall
(since the treehouse museum decided to close for a couple weeks!)

 
Watching a movie at Grandma's house
 
Playing at Grandma's!
(Todd is 8 months old and such a CHUNK~ It's so cute!)

Had to share:
We were shopping and I looked down to find the girls sharing a french fry!
Brynlee said they are sharing like Lady and the Tramp share!
 
We even got to celebrate Molly's birthday while she was here visiting!
Face Painting

 
Molly looking so cute and stylish

Todd and Ellie playing in the toy box
 
and finally... SISTER SNUGGLE TIME! So Sweet!

Rainy Day Fun

This week has been pretty rainy and the weekend looks no different.
I love rainy days especially when I can be home cuddled up on my couch. Doesn't happen often but if it ever does it is my favorite!
 
I thought it would be fun to share rainy day activities with you so this weekend you will still be able to have lots of fun (especially with your kids!)
So on rainy days...

 
Rainy Day Fun:
¨  Build a fort
¨  Make cookies
¨  Watch a movie
¨  Look for rainbows
¨  Splash in puddles
¨  Go for a walk with an umbrella
¨  Play with play-dough
¨  Make a craft
¨  Read books
¨  Catch rain drops in cups
¨  Go for a drive in your car
¨  Cuddle in bed
 
I hope I have made it so you can...

 
Also if you want a simple cookie to make this fall,

Graham Cracker Frosted Sandwich

Graham Cracker Frosted Sandwich...
the most simple, yet satisfying treat for your kids (and you too!)
If you haven't been making these already... the time is now!

ALL YOU NEED:
GRAHAM CRACKERS
FROSTING

DIRECTIONS:
Simply break the cracker in two. Frost one side of the cracker and smash the two crackers together making a sandwich. Afterwards I place all of mine in the fridge for an hour or so. It hardens the frosting and makes them less messy to eat!!


ENJOY AND HAPPY DAY!!!
