Pumpkin Pie...Preschool Style

Bug's class had their Thanksgiving feast this week and everyone in the class was asked to bring a dish. We were chosen to bring Pumpkin Pie!


As I looked down the list of food items, I noticed that everyone was being asked to bring finger foods, like turkey slices rolled up, grapes and cheese cubes. I wanted to figure out a way to make Pumpkin Pie more 4 year old friendly. That's when I remembered these...
I bought a mega sized package of these at Party City, so that "Bug" could take ranch in her lunch. (Yes, I had to ask the 20 something guy for the jello shot containers, before he could figure out what I was looking for...giggle! )


Lined those little dip cups up....


Grabbed the melon baller and dipped out a portion for each of our lil preschool friends...


Quick visit with my computer and pumpkin pie becomes pumpkin pie dip!


Put our Pumpkin Pie Dip in baggies with a few Scooby Doo Graham Cracker Sticks. I'm thinking that's how the pilgrims ate theirs, right?



The teachers were thrilled and said it's the first time they had an entire class eat pumpkin pie. We will SO be serving Pumpkin Pie Dip at our Thanksgiving Feast!
Have a blessed holiday!!

These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things...

One of my favorite things about getting together with my friends is talking about all the FABULOUS new products they've tried.
HERE'S WHAT I'M LOVING...
Tyler Candle Company's New Hand Lotion!!!! The Kathina Scent is the smell of heaven in a bottle. When I put it on my hand's I can smell it alllllllll day long. FABULOUS.

Frito's Lightly Salted Corn Chips!!! Frito's are great for so many dips but WOW does the salt overpower the flavor. Thankfully, someone over at Frito Lay agrees.....their Lightly Salted Fritos are DIP PERFECT.

Speaking of dip. I cannot get enough of Sabra's Roasted Red Pepper Hummus. In the words of Dora, "Yum yum yum yum yum, ¡delicioso!

Kenra Blow Dry Spray!!! One lil spritz and all the flyway's in my hair are gone! I just spray it on my hand and work it through my hair and my hair is shiny and slick and it smells DELICIOUS!

My CAbi Fringe Vest!!! I love that it goes with everything in my closet and it makes me feel SASSY when I wear it!!!

Ok, don't tell anyone but sometimes, as a mom, I don't always get a chance to sit down and eat breakfast. Thanks to Luna Smores Bars, I can make it through the morning without my head swimming around in hungry lala land!

What are you lovin????

BOOoooooooooootttttsssssss!!

WOW, where did October go? Finally, today it was as fall-like as we have seen this season. (as I type this I realize we will be in shorts again in 2 days but I am for now, I'm living in the moment!!) I voted today and FINALLY got to wear my new boots!!!! Sqqquuuueeealllll with DELIGHT!!!! Aren't they THE cutest!!!! This season is all about tall boots with straight leg jeans, tucked in and a lil bit of the over-the-knee-socks peaking out of the top. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!! (Hello, Target!! Thanks for helping me look trendy with your stinkin' cute over-the-knee socks!)


Halloween was a many week affair for us, starting with a totally 80's birthday party!
Like, OMG... am I the only one who grew up in the 80's that thinks its crazy that there was an 80's costume section at Party City? I so miss my crimping iron.... A bad hair day's best friend.

The girls went to a Monkey Themed birthday party at the Science Museum. Bug LOVED the dinosaur bones....Baby K loved the cake!

Halloween in our neighborhood is always an EVENT!! This year they had a trick-or-treat parade. Baby K stayed home with me to hand out candy and Bug and Daddy did their first parade. SO FUN!!

We are so excited that fall is here and we are ready for some cold weather fun! What are y'all up too?
Hugs
