I got a cute little Indian costume for my 11 year old. She has been wanted this costume and everywhere we looked didn't have her size or didn't have a nice quality looking costume for a good price.

It wasn't one of those cheap looking costumes. This one can be worn for many years to come with each of my younger kids and I know it will hold up. My daughter will look adorable in it.

GH Cretors popcorn perfect Halloween treat!

If your like me you either havent gotten Trick or Treat candy or already ate it lol. I know Im not the only one lol! So what to get last minute for that Halloween party or trick or treaters? Well I got the perfect yummy thing! GH Cretors Chicago Mix. 

Combining cheese corn and caramel corn in the same bag, this popcorn combo offers delicious hits of sweet, salty, crunchy and cheesy in every bite. The caramel corn is made the old fashioned way: by hand, in copper kettles. Cane sugar, brown rice syrup (a non-GMO alternative to corn syrup with a lower glycemic impact) and real butter is heated over a flame and then stirred slowly by hand to develop its rich complex flavor and crunch. For the cheese corn, real cheddar cheese is melted in special kettles and then gently mixed with locally-grown, air-popped corn. The result is a perfect combination of tastes, two-cheese to one-caramel in every bag. And, this treat is all natural and completely free of GMO’s, artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives!Full size bags for parties are available at select natural food and mainstream grocery stores across the country, while single serve bags for trick-or-treaters can be purchased on their website!

I absolutely love this stuff! My kids love it as well. We used it for my daughters birthday party and it was a huge hit. Then for trick or treating the small bags are perfect for handing out. This is definitely my favorite popcorn. I love the Chicago mix, the Caramel and the Kettle corn. So if you are looking for something then check these out. You will be glad you did!

Great Halloween Books from Candlewick

We read nightly in our house and we love finding books that fit the time of year or the holiday. So when Candlewick sent us some Halloween inspired books we couldnt wait to read them. I mean you can never have enough great books right especially holiday ones!

The first book we got was Vampire baby. This book is about a little sister Tootie that goes from cuddly, ga-ga-goo-goo, I-want-my-ba-ba baby to...vampire baby. Now she’s sinking her pointy fangs into everything -- furniture, toys, and especially her big brother ("Youch, Tootie! No bite!"). Mom insists that it’s just a phase, but Tootie’s brother knows better. Just look at her hairline! Or the fact that all her favorite foods are bloodred! This book is such a fun book. My girls love it! I mean it is a different twist on sibling love but it is absolutely adorable!

The next book we got was Filbert, The Good little Fiend. This book is about  a Daddy and Mommy Fiend who want their little Filbert to be gruesome and ghastly, but he won’t trample or terrify, roar or holler. He’d much rather help an old lady with her bags or go bird-watching. What are they to do with him? When Filbert starts school, he quickly learns that good behavior isn’t tolerated in class, and he is banished outside until he can act like a proper little fiend. Suddenly a little angel appears, flying fast and furious until...bump! Could this naughty Angel-School dropout be just the friend Filbert needs? Could they find a way together to make everyone accept them as they are? What a cute book. My kids think it is so funny that being good is bad and bad is good. This is a great book about teaching everyone to love everybody for who they are not what they should be.

The next book we got was Ghost in House. This book is about a little ghost who goes slip-sliding down the hallway, he suddenly hears...a groan! Turns out it’s only a friendly mummy, who shuffles along with the ghost, until they encounter...a monster! As the cautious explorers continue, they find a surprise at every turn -- and add another adorably ghoulish friend to the count. But you’ll never guess who is the scariest creature in the house! This is a great counting book and so much fun this Halloween season. My 5 year old loves it!

The next book we got is perfect for the kids who read chapter books in the house. It is called The Music of Zombies and is the 5th book of the five kingdoms books. It is about a Prince named Albion who expects a unique occasion when he starts planning Cockenzie Rood Day to celebrate his kingdom -- and himself. What he doesn’t expect is boppings on the head and kidnapping, all because a zombie wants to play his fiddle in the talent contest. With a misbehaving path, a romantic bat, and a greedy butler to set them on their way, Gracie Gillypot and Prince Marcus are off on their fifth adventure. It’s up to a Trueheart, a resourceful prince, and Gubble the troll to stop the zombie before he does some giant damage to the Five Kingdoms. This is one of my 11 year olds favorite books to read. She wanted to read the whole book in one sitting. It is a great book!

The Last book was more for my 15 year old since it is alittle more teen content. It is called Feral Nights and is about Yoshi, a sexy, free-spirited werecat, tracts his big sister, Ruby, to Austin, he discovers that she's not only MIA; she's also the key suspect in a murder investigation. Meanwhile, sarcastic werepossum Clyde and his human pal Aimee have set out to do a little detective work of their own, sworn to avenge the brutal killing of a friend. When all three are snared in an underground kidnapping ring, they end up on a remote tropical island ruled by an unusual (even by shape-shifter standards) species. The island harbors a grim secret, and were-predator and were-prey must join forces in a fight to escape alive. Fans of best-selling author Cynthia Leitich Smith's Tantalize quartet will thrill to see favorite sidekick characters-together with all-new ones-take to the fore in this wry, high-action entry in an exciting new series. My daughter loves it and says it is intense and she is so intrigued in to it. It definitely a good read according to my daughter.

So if your looking for some great Halloween books check out these great titles!

Fun Friday Crafts- No carve Pumpkin Decorating

It's that time of year to decorate Pumpkins. I really hate cutting into the pumpkins and dealing with the mess and then a couple days later the pumpkins are beginning to wilt and rot. So we now decorate them without cutting them and I can use them for Halloween decor and Thanksgiving.

Supplies:
Pumpkins
paint, crayons, ribbon, duct tape, buttons, stickers,etc.
Hot glue gun
Modge Podge

Directions:
Give kids their pumpkins and set all the craft decor on a table or where ever and let them decorate. You will be surprised at what they come up with.

1. the crayons are a fun new way to decorate. you take and tape the crayons to stem or on something above pumpkin then get your blowdryer and blow the crayons until they start to melt all over the pumpkin. So Cool if you use red crayons it gives it a dripping blood look..

2. stickers, gems, ribbon and a hot glue gun and you can creative some pretty glammed up pumpkins.

3. chalkboard paint is fun too just spray pumpkin with the chalkboard paint then give kids chalk and let them have fun!

4. My girls love to take glue and make designs and polka dots then sprinkle or roll in glitter and then let dry so cute.

5. new thing is duct tape there are so many different designs of duct tape so you can get really creative and fun with it.

6. Modge podge is great get some tissue paper or ribbon and design patterns you like with them then paint modge podge over the paper or ribbon and let dry. it turns out adorable.

7. Easiest ever is the new Mustache fad. You can buy the fuzzy mustaches at Dollar tree and stick it to the pumpkin or print off a mustache stencil and paint it on the pumpkin. So fun!

SparX xylitol candy perfect for this Halloween

This time a year we eat so much junk filled with sugar. Not only is that bad for our health but for our teeth as well. I cringe thinking about all the sugary treats we will eat this Halloween but oh so yummy too. So when I got the chance to try out SparX Candy I thought well it is definitely worth a try.

SparX is sweetened with Xylitol, natural sugar substitute. It’s all natural, gluten-free and Kosher as well as a natural enemy to bacteria. SparX have a low glycemic index and contain no aspartame, which is awesome.This candy is also dentist and hygienist recommended.

There are three different types in the 30 pack assortment:
Citrus – Lime, Orange, Tangerine
Berry – Blueberry, Strawberry, Raspberry

My kids and I adored the Berry and Fruit ones the best. The citrus ones are ok. They are very sweet and you can't eat alot of them but they are great healthy treat for Halloween, Christmas stockings, lunches and etc. I think I might even use some in my daughters birthday treat bags.

Pumpkin Masters has just what you need to make this Halloween spookitific

Can you believe its October 1st already? Time is just flying by. Its not time to get decorating and get ready for Halloween. I've got our costumes and I got some of last years decorations but my kids are ready to do pumpkins already ha ha. This year I have seen some very fun, easy, and creative ways to decorate the pumpkins. Pumpkin masters has some of the neatest new Halloween products this year and I was lucky enough to try them out!

The First thing I got to try was the Kids Pumpkin carving kit. This great kit includes 12 patterns with instructions, 12 foam stickers, 8 eye and teeth inserts, 1 kid-friendly DuraSaw®, 1 Scraper Scoop, 1 Poker, 1 battery operated light, and 1 crayon. The design were easy enough that my older kids could do them on their own. My younger kids needed help but it was fun. The younger kids loved the stickers and the crayon instead of cutting anyways. Definitely a awesome kit!

The second thing we got was the Halloween Reflective Stickers from Pumpkin masters. These are a awesome way to be seen on Halloween night. You can personalize costumes and accessories by selecting from this pack of 100 stickers in 4 reflective colors. They are even great for pumpkin decorating too. I cant wait to use these on Halloween night well whats left after using some for our pumpkins ha ha. The stick very well and this way I know my kids will be seen at night by cars. That is such a important thing while trick or treating because there are so many kids getting hit because people don't see them in the dark costumes. This is a must have for Halloween.

The last thing we got was the Flickering Mayhem Light to put into our pumpkin to give it the candle look or the spooky flickering light effect. Definitely cooler than the lights that just stay on. It is safe and is battery operated LED light that brightens, flashes, and dims. So cool to see this light at night. It definitely makes the pumpkins seem alot funner and spookier.

Overall we loved everything we got from Pumpkin masters and definitely will be buying more of their awesome product this Halloween and many Halloweens to come. So head out and check your local supermarket and stores like Walmart for Pumpkin Master products. You will be glad you did!

Costume 4 less review & giveaway ends aug 20- closed

So with 6 kids I start thinking about Halloween early because well I got alot of costumes to buy. I also try to find the biggest variety that are awesomely priced. This is where Costumes 4 less comes in.

Costume 4 less has tons of Children Costumes for great prices. I found everything my kids wanted to be all at this one site. That is a miracle. My youngest I found the cutest Minnie mouse costume for under $30 and its Disney brand! I got the Dorothy wizard of Oz costume for my 8 year old and its not the cheap flimsy ones either for under $30. My 5 year old wanted to be a rock Star and they had tons of different styles of rock stars but we found the perfect one and cute too. My son was the one I was worried about since his is almost 10 and in a size 12 its hard to find costumes he likes in his size. This year he wants to be a camo army guy. I looked at many site and all the ones I found were really thin and cheap looking or way too expensive. I found quite a few on Costumes 4 less some cheaper looking but some nice one for way less than the other sites and they had it in his size. The best part was I got 4 costumes for under $120. Normally I spend around $200 or more for costumes. So I saved quite a bit!

The best part I even found me a costume for our family Halloween party. Of course when I seen they had Betty Boop (my favorite thing that I collect everything of) I had to have it ha ha! I was great priced for being Betty boop too I was shocked. So now I am in love with this site and I hope you will check them out.
