Halloween Treats

Dalton had already snagged a piece before I got a photo.  I really never knew how delicious DQ ice cream cakes were until my mom brought me one for my birthday.  I'm addicted.  Why wait for another birthday to get another ice cream cake?  It was awesome.  We bought this one the other night when we went out for dessert with friends.  Next time, we'll just go and have ice cream cake instead of blizzards!! 

Girl Scouts Bake Sale

Saturday we had a bake sale for Olivia's Daisy Troop at the Bank of Edmonson County.  We had a really good time.  The mommies did most of the selling, but occasionally the girls came to help with the selling, which really made people buy.  One of the mom's made Oreo Balls, crushed up oreos rolled in cream cheese and dipped in chocolate.  I had never had them.  Yummy!!  We had a good turnout. 

Happy Birthday to Me!!

It doesn't seem possible at all to be 36 today....  It's been a good day.  I came home last night and my kiddos had baked me a cake and decorated it and put a big huge 3 and 6 on it.  They are so funny.  It's still sitting at home on the counter ready to eat (unless they have eaten it while I was at work).  Anyway, it's been a good day so far, have had plenty of "Happy Birthdays".  Our boss is taking all of the October birthdays next week to Olive Garden... :-)  Yum!

Brian was still working last night at 12am and he decided to give me a call and be the first to wish me a Happy Birthday.  That was extremely sweet.  I'm so lucky to have such a great family that loves me enough to make this day special.  I even got a beautiful pot of mums delivered at work today from Brian's aunt. 

Tomorrow Brian and the kids will be taking me somewhere to celebrate.  I have no idea what they have in mind.  It doesn't matter, I'll be spending it with my favorite people!   

Girl Scouts

Olivia expressed an interest in the Girl Scouts, so I thought we could try it.  We had our second meeting last night.  Even though all of them weren't there, the girls had a great time.  We met at Creekside Garden and Nursery and picked out pumpkins to paint.  They were great enough to give us pumpkins for free, that was awesome. 

We decided to dress for the occassion.

All the girls had fun painting their pumpkins.

They especially loved the inflatable the troop leader had in her backyard setup for them.
