I know this one is not original to us but it is without a doubt one of my absolute favorites. I remember year after year as a child being SO excited to get to open 1 gift on Christmas eve and EVERY.SINGLE.YEAR. hoping and praying it would be anything other than pajamas and every year…
Christmas book advent follow up.
So, we’re now 4 days into the advent and I would say things are being very well received. We started youngest to oldest with the opening of the gifts. Little Missy, the youngest was really cute opening what was probably her first every gift. The kids don’t seem to mind that they now know they’re…
Book Advent Calendar – A new tradition
I saw this idea and absolutely loved it. Truly I couldn’t wait to go through our books and find all our Christmas/holiday books. We have quite the collection. I found a darling new book for a great deal to add to our books and I know the kids are going to love it. Do you…
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies – Recipe

Homemade Cinnamon Rolls-Easier than you think!

Then I remembered that I had pinned a copy…
Skirts for Halloween
Have I made it pretty clear yet that I *LOVE* Halloween? I just do, I love the colors and the fun and the opportunity for kids to be creative and just have fun! I may also be known (a little bit) for my love of dressing my kids alike and for the season/holiday. This year…
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
My kids were SO excited when they woke up this morning! We SO SO SO love Halloween. One of my favorite thing so far about moving down to our new house here in Riverton 5 years ago now was the fact that they actually have school on Halloween and they do the school Halloween…

Pumpkin Pictures – stomach flu has struck!
I had plans to post a cute project I did but sadly the stomach flu struck our house on Sunday. We were praying we were past it yesterday when everyone seemed to be feeling a bit better but once bedtime hit we had 3 in a row come upstairs with tummy aches that quickly turned…
