Here we go, mommas! This is Marathon season for us moms, Halloween is our starting point and we don’t get to the Finish line until December 26th.  We are going to jam pack so much festive joy into our children’s lives, while still maintaining the everyday chaos, but first, those classroom Halloween treats.  Ever notice that Pinterest idea of an easy snack & your definition are two different things?!
