BOO(k).

I have mentioned this multiple times before but clare would give up just about anything in her life for books...any toy-any food. she LOVES books. so we have been meaning to take her to the library forever but life has just gotta crazy...so this week we finally made it!! and let me tell you-it was awesome! it was like me walking into a store of just sharpies...clare was in 'awwwww.' she just starred for like 10 minutes till she realized she could pull them down and look at whatever she wanted.

we will def. make it a more regular occurrence.
she was in heaven...and we even found a handy manny board book and of course a mickey mouse clubhouse movie :)

in other news...we are having family pics this weekend by my amazingly talented friend Emily. so christie and the fam are coming for the w/e.
I was stumbling through websites a while back and found these-

and knew I MUST try my hand at them. knowing that isaac (who loves bats and halloween stuff) was coming made it even more perfect.

pre-frosting.

I recruited some helpers.
man did we get that kitchen messy!!

the final product.
they took forever.
the ghosts are my favorite!!

have an awesome weekend*
