Posted on October 30, 2009
Welcome guest blogger Susie!!
Susie is the creative mastermind behind Decorate Your Soul and Catchlight Photography in Ohio.
Between raising three gorgeous girls AND running a wildly successful photography business, she made time to whip out a HALLOWEEN week of learning and fun for us!!!
WITCH HAT DETAILS:
 Edible Delights: Pear Witch project courtesy of Family Fun
Letters: Find the “W” on the witches hat
Math: Addition/subtraction on the witch’s hat (she turned it over and asked for subtraction, how cute is that?) We halved the pear in our “pear witch project” snack …Counted pairs for the eyes on both the witch face and snack… Used colorful dots to work on patterns
THANK YOU for all your fantastically fun ideas Susie!

Life. How sweet it is.
A colorful garden filled with wonder and magic…
What I love most about my job is that I get to capture the absolute beauty and magic of kids being kids.
Nothing is sweeter.
Nothing is as delightful.
Nothing beats moments like these…
Heavenly Father, thank you for the magical moments that children bring us each and every day.

Oh my… the colors, the creativity, the fun… I can hardly stand it!

Playful Fun: Candy Corn Toss
Edible Delights: Cheese and Crackers, Cupcakes, and a sad attempt at a fruit parfait with what I had on hand. I recommend pudding for the yellow layer instead of applesauce.

Art Time: Melting Beads, Bean Bags
Activities: Sewing and Knitting
Decorating: Candy Corn Garland and Hair Clip
Thanks Heather for your wealth of inspiration!

I guess this little man is…
It’s the little things that daily make my heart burst into a million smiles. I will never forget the moment I glanced over to find this little guy asleep in his high chair. Naturally I had to take advantage of his snoozing for a little photo fun!
Thank you God for all the treasures of fall!!
