Pumpkin Cake Mix Cookies
I was so excited for Halloween this year. We live in a family friendly, mostly military neighborhood and I love decorating and passing out candy to all the trick or treaters! Then to top off our Halloween, our little “pumpkin” Ava was born on Oct 23, so she could celebrate with us! Unfortunately it was too cold to dress her up and take her out but I did paint an Ava pumpkin and put her in a pumpkin onesie! 
The week of Thanksgiving I baked lots of treats including Peanut Butter Pudding Cookies for the EOD guys at my husband’s work (recipe coming soon!) and these delicious (and super easy!) Chocolate Pumpkin Cake Cookies! They only have 4 ingredients and have the consistency of a moist whoopie pie. The best thing: they are bite size and delicious!
 
 Thanks to Dana for this great recipe!

I made this onesie for her with an iron on decal I found for 99 cents!
Check out her ghost hair clip!

    I don't know how, but I've never had Pumpkin and Chocolate together in one dessert! I think I need to change that!

🍓 Today is National Pick Strawberries Day. Going to local farms and picking fresh produce is one of our favorite family traditions. We were lucky enough to go strawberry picking at @eckertfarms last weekend. It was the biggest farm we have ever been to and quite a memorable experience! We left with a basket full of fresh juicy berries, strawberry cider and pastries from the market, and soaking wet clothes (but smiles on our faces). I'll share more about the hail storm that hit us in the middle of the field later... ⛈️😨 #nationalpickstrawberriesday #farmfresh  #strawberry #eckerts #farmtotable #farmlife #illinois #springtime #familyfun #eckertfarms #eckertsmemories

❤️This week marks 2 years since our beloved cocker spaniel Dylan passed away. I created this free printable Rainbow Bridge poem on the blog in honor of Dylan. It can be customized with your pet's photo and would be a  cherished framed gift for someone who has lost a special pet. #rainbowbridge #doglove #dogheaven #rip #mydog  #neverforgotten #rainbowbridge🌈
