In lieu of the upcoming holiday, I thought I might share some happy news that I read in a TIME magazine article, with all of you chocolate lovers out there: are you ready, no really, are you ready? In a nut shell the article said that CHOCOLATE IS GOOD FOR YOU! Yay! Clap your hands! Cause its true. Research on consuming chocolate has shown that eating chocolate provides many health benefits such as: happier moods (caused by the chocolate stimulating a happy hormone in the brain called Serotonin) (well thats no surprise), smoother skin, antioxidants (thanks to the flavinoids found in cocoa), lower blood pressure, and a healthier heart. Isn't that great!?? So in order to do what is really best for my body, while also trying feel the spirit of the holiday, I have guiltlessly been devouring a plethora of fun sized m&m's, kit-kat bars, chocolate chips, and butterfingers. (Shhh. . . no one tell her that the article actually was referring to dark chocolate and that you are only supposed to consume a little bit every day).A toast to chocolate! Enjoy the holidays my loved ones!

Who knew that an ROUS could be so cute! :)
Why Hello my cute smelly friend! That first pic is so classic!
Cute! I wish I could see her in real life. Thanks for posting the chocolate info. Jared and I have a mission to convert the world to dark chocolate. Well, not really, but once you realize how good it is, there's no going back.
Such a cute costume! And thanks for the heads up on the chocolate part. Now I wont feel horribly miserable when I eat all of Austin's halloween candy.
Cute costume Jessica! Where did you find that? So funny! Thanks for sharing!
I got it at the Chilren's place for half off! It was only $11.00!
That skunk costume is darling and Olivia looks so great! And I have heard that info about chocolate before. No wonder my skin is so smooth - I eat my fair share daily ;)
Jess Oh my gosh! How cute is your little skunk. I love it. Olivia is so precious. I love the toast to chocolate. You're hillarious!
because kids really can be little stinkers, literally...love the costume.
