{Lucky}

Was it a "LUCKY" day at your house?

This is the extent of our St. Patricks day decor.... I better start looking for next year.

I feel LUCKY to have such adorable preschoolers. I love to see them grow and learn, and they are learning (whew.... I've worried about that).

I made a LUCKY after school snack for the kids, only the kids, none for me.....whatever?!? They turned out to be a yummy experiment that will for sure be repeated!
We were LUCKY to spend the evening with friends enjoying our green dinner. Yep, green chicken enchiladas, green tortillas, green rice, broccoli, rainbow jello and green punch. Not to mention....green sour cream, green onions, green salad and dressing, brownies with mint ice cream and rainbow cupcakes, Kami always goes all out! It all was really yummy once you got past the green color. (Honestly, the picture isn't doing justice to just how green everything really was).

We are also LUCKY and get to celebrate LOTS of birthdays this week and next!

First, Grandma Jeannie!
Then, Derrick's brother Nick!
Then Grandma Sheri!
Next, my Bestest friend, Ann's birthday is today!
Along with my cute nephew Carson!
In just a few days it's my nephew Bryson's birthday!
Then our Kaleb will celebrate a very special birthday!
And, last but not least, we end the festivities with my brother Shad's birthday!
I'd have to say I feel pretty LUCKY! I have a great hubby man, 3 darling, well-behaved kiddos ;) a nice comfortable home, great families, a job, the Gospel, and some wonderful friends, just to name a few! Yep, I feel pretty LUCKY....... No actually, I feel blessed!

{Preschool Halloween Fun}

We just finished our preschool Halloween party and we had SO much fun! The kids were all adorable....I just love them all. We were sad that Tylie was sick and couldn't come, it seems like every time we do something fun, we are missing someone. Mom and Carlie right before school started.

Miss Monica's Preschool Class
Aren't they all adorable?
Carlie had the treat today, so we made Ding Dong Spiders. I forgot until the last minute that I was going to use licorice ropes for the legs.
We had a bean bag toss with our Halloween print bean bags!
We made Ghosts from styrofoam cups! These are so fun..... you really should try it. We practiced last night and my kids loved it (ok, I did too....it's kind of addicting). All you have to do is draw your face on, obviously the kids all wanted me to do theirs. Then put them on a cookie sheet in your oven preheated to 350. Watch them, ours only took 2-3 min. You can leave them as is, or mold them a bit while they are still warm. We also poked a hole in the top so they could be hung up.
And last but not least a fun little Frankenstein to wish you a Happy Halloween!
