Reindeer Noses


I saw this cute idea and had to try it! Dont they look like reindeer noses? I remember my dad would put a red light bulb high in a tree and light it Christmas eve. He would tell me that it was Rudolph's nose and Santa was waiting for me to go to bed so he could put the gifts under the tree :) The red M&m's reminded me of that memory.... can't wait to fool Copper :)

Reindeer Noses:
1 bag of pretzels
1 bag of Rolo's or chocolate kisses
1 bag of m&m's

Heat oven to 250-300
place pretzels on cookie sheet and rolos or m&m's on top of the pretzels and stick them in the oven. Let them soften for about 3-5 minutes just so the chocolate softens but doesn't completely melt. Take them out and gently press an m&m onto the chocolate. Let them set and then eat away!

Halloween 2011

Copper's first Halloween will be a "first" to remember.
We had to stop by the fire station to show dad Copper's costume. He is a Frog :)

We all headed over to the Auntie neighborhood to visit Aunt Becky and Aunt Lindsay (Jeannie's sisters) for their Halloween fun! Becky and her husband Lou put on an amazing spooky halloween every year. Copper obviously wasn't scared... I have a feeling he will be trouble when he grows up...

Uncle Lou in his Sunday best...

Gigi in her impromptu costume... I thought she looked like a Miami housewife :)
First Halloween as a family :)

More pictures to come... if I can ever upload all the pictures :)

Random October pictures :)

Love my boy!
