This is how I celebrated October this weekend:

Baking Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies


The cookies came out amazing!! They are wicked good- try making them!

and

Carving Pumpkins




Mine is the first one, it's supposed to be Jack Skellington. My sister did the second one, it's just supposed to be a dead pumpkin. We had fun!

Edit: I'm gonna make a pumpkin pie now too! Yum.

It's Begun!

Today is the first day of October, and you know what that means.... Mrs. B's 31 Days of Halloween starts today! If you've never been over to her blog, do so now! This is the most exciting blog event in all of October!

Halloween Last Night!

Last night was a fun night! I loved being able to take my friend out trick or treating for the first time ever! I can't believe they don't have it in France. Emeline loved it. We are showing her our culture and giving her cavities at the same time. xD She says there are a lot of different candies here that they don't have in France.

My loot is pictured above. The best thing I got was from my Aunt Jen who gave me a king size version of my two favorite candy bars, Kit Kat and Reese's! Below is a picture of the three of us. Emeline was a vampire, I was a pirate, and Amy was a zombie. It was a great night, and my last time trick or treating for myself. Give me 15 years and I can take out either my own kids, my sister's, or both!

I was wearing the shirt from Dawtch. It was perfect for my pirate outfit! I'm so glad I won it in Mrs. B's 31 Days of Halloween. I want to say thank you Mrs. B. for doing that wonderful giveaway! It must have taken so much work to organize. If you do it again next year I hope I can help by having something to give away. I'll just have to see where the year takes me!

October!

I planned on writing some sort of informative post tonight. It’s been such a great day though and it just feels like Autumn has finally come! It’s also close to dinner and I have no information gathered for an educational post. xP So I am just going to talk about October and all the wonderful things that happen during this month.

First off is probably the most exciting blogging event of the month! Mrs. B.’s 31 Days of Halloween Event has finally begun! Mrs. B. is giving away at least one item every day this month! These items are donated by various people, and they are all truly amazing pieces of art! She will also have guest bloggers, craft ideas, and recipes. You should check out her blog if you haven’t already.

The next exciting blogging event is Sacred Suzie’s Halloween Etsy. She has made tons of handmade pendants and is selling them. They all look awesome, and they aren’t very expensive! Don’t miss out on buying one, go check out her blog!

Personally, October is my favorite month. During September we can still get some days that feel too warm. The Autumn weather is perfect. The leaves are beautiful. Plus, on the last day, we’ve got Halloween! You can really have the Halloween spirit all month long too. I know I plan on visiting Salem, Massachusetts, for at least a day. I went last year with my family, and I’ve been wanting to go back! There is a great haunted hay ride in the town near us that we go to every year. It’s the last month before I have to hear endless talking about snow, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Not that those things aren’t fun, but I truly do miss the month of October when it’s gone.
