Friday favorites

I am linking up with Andrea and Erika for another week of Friday Favorites.


Halloween is my favorite holiday and this year was a blast! Brynna had a countdown for weeks and had her costume picked out for months :)
It was easier this year since all three walked. Here is our whole crew. We met up with our favorite neighbors. 
I just picked up this Sublime shirt for Bryella and I absolutely love it! Here she is rockin it.
I think it would look amazing with some lime green accessories like this.

Ruby Blue Inc
Tomorrow my big girl turns 7. She's such a blessing to our lives!

It's also deer hunting this weekend and we had our first snow a day ago. Nothing stuck but it was a cruel reminder winter is coming :( have a great weekend!

Weekend fun at the Pumpkin Festival

This weekend was the 14th annual pumpkin festival near our house. It's the second year we have gone and we always have so much fun! Plus the weather was so much nicer this year than last year.


This is this years. So many huge great looking pumpkins and this one was the winner.
I wanted to use Bryella is a size reference but she was having none of it. She wanted to see every pumpkin.

We skipped the pumpkin carving station this year, and went to painting and decorating because we have already carved pumpkins for this year.


They did such a great job!

Finished products.


We then went to ride the ponies. Both the girls loved it!



Such cute cowgirls!

I missed recording the pumpkin drop but if you would like to see it check out the Williams Company Facebook account. It was an awesome drop!

Me and my girl matching :) 

Sunday we went swimming with Bryce's  Boy Scout troop. He has so much fun being in scouts! 

And the girls get to swim too!

Today is the last day for friends and family! Great deals!

Hope everyone had a great weekend and they're enjoying all fall has to offer!

Best ever bagel dip!

A few years ago I had met my friend Mandi at a nearby hotel to swim with our kids, back when she only had four and me two. Now, when we meet up our total kids amount to 8. Greatly outnumbering the adults. 

Mandi had made this dip and I'm not much of a bagel fan but this is delicious! My kids also love it! I've tweaked it some from her original recipe.

Best Ever Bagel Dip
3/4 cup sour cream
3/4 cup mayo (I use light mayo)
2oz cream cheese, softened
1cup dried beef, Mandi used corned beef
1/2 tsp dill
1/2 tsp garlic salt
Pepper

Just mix all the ingredients together and stir. I refrigerate four hours before serving. I tear my bagels apart or if you prefer use a kitchen scissors to cut them. 

I am linking up with Andrea at momfessionals.com for her recipe club this month.

While we were shopping for supplies we found the most purr-fect hat!!
Gotta love Target!

Favorite things

I am linking up with Andrea and Erika for another month of our favorite things!

I found these Headbands at Target while school shopping. Brynna had wanted a cat ear headband and we could only find them on etsy so, when I found these we snatched then up. The headbands are in the infant section but they fit my 6 year old and 1.5 year old. These headbands just give that extra something to the outfit!

I also need new mascara and I fell for this! It makes your lashes very voluminous without any clumps and doesn't flake. Looks like falsies without having to do all the work! I like how flimsy the brush is (keeps me from poking my eye ;-)) Haha
You should all definitely give this mascara a try and excited to read all your favorites.

Friday favorites

Today I am linking up with Andrea and Erika for another weeks of our Friday favorites.
Ice cream
My favorite thing this week has to be getting ice cream with the kids.
We have the most perfect Lilly ice cream shoppe in the neighboring town and we frequent it many times a year.

My children bonding
My kids have spent a lot of time together this summer, which is the case every summer, but this year Bryella can keep up! 
She absolutely loves her brother and sister and wants to do exactly what they do! In fact this morning I caught Bryce kissing Bryellas owie.

Cards Against Humanity
I may be late on this game but I have never laughed so much!
It's great to see people's sense of humor!!! Has anyone else played this?

We'll that's it for this week! Have a great weekend

Fridays favorites

I am linking up with Andrea and Erika for another edition of Fridays favorites.

I am thankful for a positive attitude this week. So many people are battling so much more than I am and I am happy I am capable if finding the positives in many situations.


Opening the Door to Your God Sized Dream. This book is a great read! I am loving the feeling I have after I read each chapter every morning.


Ah my moms lake house..... We love spending time here, the company, lake, jet skis, sand bar, water trampoline, we couldn't be happier ;-)


Havaianas I love these flip flops! I can walk forever and never have sore feet or get a headache ( which I sometimes do from shoes with no support).
Can't wait to read all of your favorites!

Weekend festival

We enjoy hitting up small town festivals all summer long but our favorites occur at the end of summer.

This weekend we went to Otter Fest. It was Bryellas first time playing games. She's hard to keep still and loves doing what the big kids do. These games were perfect to keep her happy! And boy did she have many helpers! :-)

Who brings a snake to the park?? Eeww

Mad dash for candy!

Since all my children have winter ish birthdays my mom decided to celebrate their birthdays this summer so she could be involved. #snowbird My kids loved it though! Definitely made me wish one of my kids had a summer birthday as a warm swimming party is just way more fun than a cold ice skating party!


Bryella enjoyed her cupcake but not the sticky mess at the end ;)


Hope to enjoy this weekend as much as last!
