I bought three small pumpkins this year for each of my kids to carve their own. They are to young to actually carve their own, but I was hoping they would at least help me get the pumpkin seeds out.
Our pumpkin carver broke , so we went out and got another one with 3 knives. All of those broke, so I was stuck using a knife to carve.
This is how they turned out. I tried, my kids still love them
They look like my kids !!!! Haha
I don’t write to much about myself, I am not really sure why but today I will
My name is Brandy Walleshauser
Favorite color is Purple and Black, even though i consider black a shade.
Favorite Movie: The Nightmare Before Christmas is My favorite, but I love anything by Tim Burton.
Favorite Holiday: Holloween
What were you like as a teen: I was a loaner in high school, and was bullied because I wore black all the time (kind of gothic) and was low income.
What are you like now: I am still kind of a loaner I don’t have to many friends, but have faded away from the whole black everything phase. Now that I am a mom my life is revolved around my kids.
What did you want to be: I wanted to be a mortician, but my feelings on that changed after I started having a family.
did you attend college: No I attended Beauty school for a year, but did not get to finish. I had my first child and my husband was deployed, so i thought it was best to drop out.
Thats all i can think of right now, as you can tell i don’t get out much. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Cheerios® is giving you the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, your ultimate family vacation. As part of a paid promotion for their “Do What You Love” Sweepstakes, Cheerios® is sponsoring my post today about what my ultimate family vacation would be. Read mine, Enter the Sweepstakes for a chance to actually win your own fantasy family trip or one of a bunch of other great prizes.
My Ultimate family vacation would be a trip to the west coast Arizona, Nevada and California. Why? I have family in all those states. My Parents and Brother in Arizona, neices and nephew in Nevada, and Grandparents, tons of Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. I haven’t seen anyone in my family in years, some of my family including my dad have never met two of my children. So that would be my Ultimate Vacation, and I would bring all my family, husband and 3 kids. There are other things I would do while on the West Coast like eating at Wienerscnitzel, and Jack in the Box, two places I miss being on the East Coast. Then there’s Golden gate Park in San Fransico (Which my Great Great Uncle Built, look for his statue in the park, Gambling in Vegas, and White Tank Mountains in Arizona.
Don’t forget to enter the “Do What You Love” Sweepstakes, for a chance to win your own ultimate family vacation. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do.

*****When my husband came home, I showed him the flowers I received, and his first reaction was I am suppose to go give you flowers not the other way around! He finally accepted the gesture. These Flowers are gorgeous, and smelled great, unfortunately they started to wilt quickly. There are so many gifts to choose for your mate though, cakes, chocolates, rose petals.

Our Labor Day BBQ didn’t really happen. We had a inside cookout.
We ran out of propane and there are not very many places to get it around here, plus not having money for it (Yes I’m low income) We decided to cook inside.
The kids had fun the last couple days before school started.
Today was my Daughters first day of school, as hard as it was for me. She was actually excited.
