I may or may not have two pairs of witch legs. One for the front yard, and one for the backyard. 🦁 🐯 🐻 👠 Swipe to see what happened when Toby decided he was done playing in the playhouse. 🤣

My husband suggested using pop tarts for our haunt

My husband suggested using pop tarts for our haunted gingerbread houses after I went to several stores and couldn’t find chocolate graham crackers. Is this another crazy supply shortage? I was skeptical, but bought some chocolate ones, and a package of cookies and cream pop tarts to humor him. He was right, I was wrong. They work so much better than graham crackers!

He had to know this was coming. If you build me a darling coop, I’m gonna have fun with it. 🐔👠🎃 My witch legs are 6 years old and still going strong! Best $12 ever. Linked in stories! #nelsonsbackyardchickens

Check out my stories to see how easy it is to make these quick Parmesan garlic breadsticks! Less than an hour, and the best breadsticks EVER. Could it be because they are brushed with butter 3x? 🙈 I learned how to make these 18 years ago at a bread making class and they’ve been a staple in our home ever since.

Target has the $1 pumpkins again! This year’s pumpkins are jewel toned. Grab some and make a pretty fall wreath for your front door! I put mine (from last year) up today. It needed a little more hot glue in a couple of spots, but looks perfect!

I was brainstorming ideas for a General Conference

I was brainstorming ideas for a General Conference handout for my 16-18 YW and found out that the church sells extra copies of the Ensign magazine for $1. I'm going to order copies of the November 2020 conference issue (once it comes out) and give one to each young woman with a highlighter and a challenge to read one talk every week (highlighting their favorite parts) until conference comes around again! Stop by the blog for the free printable.

Not sure whose idea it was, but everyone followed

Not sure whose idea it was, but everyone followed suit and put themselves to bed in the coop last night. They finally figured it out after weeks of huddling in the corner of the run, chirping at us in the dark until we did it for them. 😂

Went to @michaelsstores to pick up an order, and almost forgot to get the order because we got distracted in the Halloween section. Who else is dying over this little black tray? It was so perfect! Come see how we assembled this little tabletop Halloween fairy garden! https://gluesticksblog.com/tabletop-halloween-fairy-garden/
