Aren’t these adorable?!  My sweet friend Jean came over and helped me make pumpkins to give to my BSF group.  In our study last week in John 4:35 it talks about open your eyes and look at the fields that are ripe for harvest.  I decided we would “harvest” some pumpkins to remind us of this important scripture.

I am so excited that Stampin’ Up! is offering these and can’t wait to get mine!

Stampin’ Up! Halloween Reese’s Peanut Butter Boxes

I’ve told you this before, but for those of you who are new to my blog…did you know Stampin’ Up! has a gift box for Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins?  My kid’s favorite treat to receive for any holiday is Reese’s Peanut Butter ________!  You know…Hearts, Eggs, Pumpkins, Christmas Trees etc.  Does Reese’s make a Peanut Butter Turkey?  They would like that too.  Anyway, I make these boxes for every holiday that Reese’s and my kids celebrate together 🙂  Here’s the Reese’s Peanut Butter Box for this year.  I copied the theme from yesterday’s Halloween treat box.

It was trick or treat night here in West Des Moines tonight.  It’s always on October 30 and the kids tell a joke and then get some candy.  It’s a beautiful night and fun to connect with our neighbors.  We’ve seen lots of cute kids and also cute dogs dressed in costumes.  The only thing that would make the evening better is if the Cubs win their World Series game tonight!  We need to get that “W” flag flying instead of laying in the bushes.  Yeah!  It’s Monday morning and the “W” flag is up and flying! Go Cubs Go!

 

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
