Halloween Wrap Up

I spent the first of the month decorating the house for Halloween. Here are a few pictures. 

I also made Sally a few spooky lunches.

We also started wearing some of our Halloween clothes...why not right?!

We made caramel apples and watched a bunch of our favorite spooky movies and shows. 

The weekend before Halloween, Sally woke up and had a spooky breakfast and that night we attended Zoo Boo. She had a ball!

On Thursday, Sally had her party at school. She woke up and told me she wanted to be a ballerina, so that is what she was. We sent in mummy treats for her classmates, soap for her teachers and she also got a spooky lunch.  

That night we carved pumpkins. Sally really wanted a My Little pony pumpkin so Joe did his best :)

Sally was a little more hesitant this year about pulling out the pumpkin guts. 

The Friday night before Halloween we attended Trick or Treating at Fed Ex. The girls had so much fun!!

After that we changed costumes and headed over to the Germantown Halloween Festival. 

On Halloween night we had some friends over for chili and trick or treating. It had rained all day so I was worried we wouldn't be able to go out but the rain quit just in time and we had a blast!

I just love doing all the "extra" fun stuff when it comes to holidays. I love doing it and Sally loves getting to experience it :)

Hocus Pocus

October is here.... that means I have Hocus Pocus playing constantly.

If you have never seen the movie or if you haven't seen it in a long time, please do yourself a favor and watch it. 

In case you need a reason, here are the "21 Reasons Why Hocus Pocus is the Best Movie"

If you love Hocus Pocus as much as me, check out my Pinterest board here for all kinds of printables, shirts, party ideas and more. 

Five On Friday

Happy September Friends!!

For me, September 1st signifies the start of fall. I've been burning my "leaves" candles from Bath and Body Works and dreaming of crisp nights eating chili and watching The Walking Dead. We have a Disney trip and beach trip coming up and I am so excited and ready to start the holiday season. So let's get onto five things I'm loving right now :)

{one}

As a former kindergarten teacher, I have just about every book ever made. I knew we needed a bookshelf to wrangle up some of the books in Sallys room. I found this one at a local consignment sale for $15!!! We had it painted and its good as new. I love this new addition to Sally's room and also love having all the books in one spot.

I am a HUGE walking dead fan. Read all about our trip to Atlanta here. We visited all the filming locations and it was an amazing experience for any WD fan. That being said, I was VERY excited to watch the new spin off series "Fear The Walking Dead". We are two episodes in and so far I am loving it!

Halloween is next month and I am itching to decorate. I may bust some of it out before we leave for Disney! Home Goods never disappoints me. I found all this one day and was so excited!!

I was on the hunt for this towel after a friend posted it on FB. Y'all know I LOVE Hocus Pocus. After a search of almost all the Home Goods in the Memphis area, I randomly walked into a TJ Maxx and there it was in all its glory...my Hocus Pocus kitchen towel!!

I found these pajamas for Sally at Carters. 

And of course I NEEDED this sign when I saw it at Hobby Lobby!

Dollar Tree has started putting out their Halloween stuff so I snatched up these paper straws. I may have bought one pack of each design.

I also may have bought my first pumpkin of the year at Kroger this week. 

Don't worry....I didn't forget about Thanksgiving! Luckily Hobby Lobby knew just what I needed!

We leave for Disney in 13 days!!! I am so excited for this trip but feel like I still have so much to do!

We started our Disney countdown at day 30 and have been doing fun activities each day. Read more about that here. 

Our Magic Bands came in the mail....so of course I had to use decals from My Fantasy Bands to decorate them!

We also got our amazing autograph book in the mail this week. Amanda from Dixie Delights blog makes these and I haven't been able to find another that I like as much. This one has spaces for both autographs and pictures. Its actually more of a memory book. Check them out here!

Fall shopping is underway for Sally and I was so excited to score this cute dress from Smocked Auctions. 

I hope everyone has a great weekend. I turn 34 on Sunday!!
