My family if by far the most important to me! I would walk through fire for them.... My next love in life is Halloween and Disney! So let's put those two together for a great treat! If you even slightly know me you know I really LOVE Halloween! It is my favorite holiday by far! I keep wondering where this love for Halloween comes from? Perhaps the excitement that always came with the holiday, no pressure, all the fun treats, my Dad always use to dress up with me..... I'm sure all combined together Halloween has always been a happy time for me throughout my life. While I was pregnant with Anna we got to take a family vacation to Disney World with Derek during Halloween. It was so wonderful! The Halloween party was beyond my expectations! The parade, the shows, there dressed up characters, the treats..... I could keep going on..... It's hard to try all the treats that are only available during the party time at Magic Kingdom but I sure tried to at least see them all. So

Potatoes are so versatile! Many things you an do with them and most people like them. Being a Mom I'm always looking for new ways to get my kids to eat good things. Preheat oven to 400. Start with washing your russet potatoes. Slice into coins. place on a lined baking sheet. Brush with melted butter on both sides and sprinkle with garlic salt. Bake in oven for 20-30 minutes. I tested their doneness by sticking the middle with a fork to ensure it was soft and easily slides out. Take the potato chips out of the oven. Top with Cheese, Bacon and Chives. Put back in the oven for a minute to melt. Remove and serve. You can even top with a little dollop of sour cream or however you normally take your baked potato. My family loves salmon. I tell my kids all the time this is a "super food" since super heroes are a popular topic in our home these days. Some great words to live by below. This is probably easy at times as we surround ourselves with people we love. How
