I'm no Martha Stewart...

...but if I was I could see myself going a little overboard with decorations during holidays. I don't do a lot of decorating, but I do love buying new Christmas ornaments. Having been married just four years I feel like we're still building up our ornament collection.

But, I'm skipping ahead. Currently, if I was into Halloween decor, I would definitely be buying one of these:

You can find these at Target in a few fun colors. As much as I like orange I think I might go for the green. That is, if I was a Halloween decorator...

Right now I am excited about the pumpkin cake pops I will be making for the cake walk that will be part of the Fall Festival we are having at church on Halloween weekend. I'm also working up a costume for Addie and dreaming about pumpkin-flavored treats to make. I have yet to make my pumpkin cheesecake but it will show itself soon. In the meantime I have been feasting on pumpkin pie Pop Tarts, Hershey kisses in pumpkin spice, caramel apple and candy corn flavors, and just the other day I had a pumpkin pie Blizzard from DQ.

I love pumpkin.

I am thankful for today's beautiful weather and Addie's long nap. She needs to gear up for all the bouncing she'll do tomorrow with the kiddos from church!
