Halloween 2012

Minecraft, Witch and Sniper

Welcome the the Witch's Kitchen, I brewed up so special candy today...yes every year I dress the same and add a few more touches to 'my kitchen'.  Trent is Steve from Minecraft, I found the instructions on Pinterest, he also has a pitchax. He had his picture taken alot around the neighborhood and lots of people knew who he was.  Brice is a Sniper, Danny made his gilly suit, I will add a pic later of him hiding in the neighbors yard. Here is my kitchen and my kettle that I had candy in.  Of course with all the excitement I did not realize that I did not have pics till after it was dark... 

Even those that did not dress up still had fun...how my man does Halloween...he sits outside with me, his Witch and keeps me company, and then helps clean up, I love him....

Halloween is also Brice birthday, this year he is a 'Double Digit Midget' I will post his day later

Double Digit Midget

Today Brice is 10....wow, he likes to hear the story of Dad driving through a blizzard to be there for his arrival, I like to remind him he was 10lb 5.6oz and there nurses being in awe to how big he was

 

   

 Here he is with money from Grammie and Grumps, notice no shirt...next pic he is wearing a shirt that he got as a present, tshirt is one he saw at the store about a month ago but they did not have his size, I happened to find one, it says 'it's all fun and games till the cops show up', itunes gift card $50!!! xbox 360 game, he also got a bunch of halo action figures, lego grab bags, cookie monster ball cap, tshirt and camo pants... oh most importantly a cell phone....theme was his new favorite color, purple, and the requested cupcakes in vanilla (he likes) and chocolate (trent likes)....so yes to boxes of mix, we did sample a few when they came out of the oven, to make sure they were safe for human consumption! lol

Dinner last night

Boneless pork steaks chops

Ranch Seasoning Dry Mix Packet

1 can Cream of Chicken plus 1 can water (what I do , I like thinner gravy) or 2 cans cream of chicken

Combine all three ingredients in the crockpot and mix well.  

Cook on High for 4 hrs

I start it before we go to practice, come home to dinner ready.  I also start the rice cooker before we leave the house too, it has a stay warm option and then just warm up so broccoli in the microwave when we get home.

yummy!
