YAY it's October! That means sweaters, boots, all things pumpkin, and HALLOWEEN! Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. Before I had kiddos, I loved dressing up, going to themed parties, and even catching the Rocky Horror Picture Show live on stage in Atlanta. Those days are long behind me and now we have more kid-friendly festivities. And I'm TOTALLY okay with that!


Besides dressing the kiddos up in their super cute costumes, we love to go to our local pumpkin patch, enjoy some hayrides, carving pumpkins, indulge in too much candy, and watch Netflix for all of our spooky (the kid friendly way) streaming.

Here's some of our favorites:

I'm so excited for Christmas! I know we just celebrated Halloween, but I have been patiently waiting until I can talk about Christmas! Being in our new house, we need some new decorations especially easy to store outside ones!

Crab Pot Christmas Trees are remarkable, perfectly shaped trees that are pre-lit, fold flat for storage, sparkle from EVERY angle and are easily set up. What makes these holiday trees so unique and the MUST HAVE of the season for home decor? Crab Pot Christmas Trees are made from the very durable PVC Coated Crab Pot Wire which withstands all that Mother Nature throws at it.

I am a stay-at-home mom and as much as I would love to go grocery shopping by myself, that just isn't realistic for our lifestyle. My daughter is in school, so I usually only have one in tow when I grocery shopping these days. My toddler son. Two of his favorite ways to keep him entertained are toys and snacks.

As soon as we head into our local Publix, we make sure to get the car grocery cart. It's a fun way to keep little ones entertained while grocery shopping. Sometimes we will head over to their bakery department and get a complimentary cookie, but most of the time we head straight to their baby aisle and grab some Gerber® toddler snacks. Our new favorites are the Gerber® Lil’ Beanies™.

Did you know October is National Pizza Month? We LOVE pizza in our house. I personally have never been one to really make pizza, but we are trying new recipes since we have moved into our new house. We love having family movie night with pizza, so I thought I would get a little creative in the kitchen and make something special.

I decided I would make Teriyaki Chicken Pineapple Pizza. On specially marked packages of Mama Mary’s® Pizza Crust from October through November at Walmart stores nationally, there will be a fold-out booklet with more than $5 in coupon savings from Mama Mary’s® Pizza Crusts and Pepperoni, Dole® Pineapple, Cabot® Cheese, Kikkoman® Teriyaki, Barilla® Sauce, and Filippo Berio® Olive Oil...PLUS some great recipes! I asked my daughter what her favorite thing that I cooked was and she said PIZZA! So I must have done something right!
