To Buy or Not to Buy

Are you still doing some Holiday shoppping?? Read this before you purchase your gift! I saw this on Pinterest and thought it was funny!

Happy Shopping!!!

Smile Please...No Way, Not Me

I had a Holiday Photo Shoot with Tegan and Tensley...

This was the best picture of them.

Note to self....No photo shoots during nap time! I will have to try again a different day! :)

After I layed Tensley down for her nap, Tegan wanted me to take a couple more pictures of her before her nap. She loved playing photo shoot and had so much fun!

Have a Beautiful day!

I Like That Too

My lil Brother Caylon was taught when they go into stores to say "I like that" if he sees something that he wants.....instead of "I want that". I started doing this with Tegan and it has worked wonders!!! We can actually go into stores now and when she says "I like that" I can say "I like that too, sweetie" It's great! Instead of "I want that" and I have to say "no, were not getting that today" and you know where that leads to...Tears (not always, but a lot!) We have been doing this now for awhile and she has been Awesome when we go shopping! (Thank you Jodi, for the Wonderful tip!)

We stopped at the Dollar Store today and I told Tegan she could pick out something. She picked the Plastic Balloons! I can remember playing with these when I was little! So fun! Would make a great Socking Stuffer too! Only a Dollar...can't beat that!!

On December 2nd Patrick and I celebrated our 5 year Anniversary!!!

For 5 years the anniversary gift is wood...so I made him this picture. I'm not sure where we are going to hang it yet. I want to get a black frame to float around it still, but it was so easy and inexpensive to make! I picked a picture of us when we were just being silly taking pictures of ourselves, so every time I would look at it I would smile!

Here is how I made it:

Supplies:

•  Wood board (I got it from Lowes - cost $5.49)
• Picture (I had it blown up 11x14 at WalMart - cost $7.57 -the total is "our" number, I thought that was so cool!)
• Paint
• Modge Podge

Directions:

• Paint Board
• Modge Podge Picture on
• Paint your message
• Modge Podge all over

That's it! Super easy gift!

Happy Anniversary!

 You are such an Amazing Man, Husband & Father!

I Love You Always & Forever!

Let your Sparkle out today!!!

Holiday Cheer

Such a great gift to give yourself! I always have to remind myself to breath and slow down! I am often a worrier! Enjoy the moment!!!

Our Neighborhood Holiday Celebration Event was on Saturday....

Horse Hay Rides  Real Snow  S'more Making  Cookie Decorating  Performances by Little Kids & Pictures with Santa Clause! All of this was free..Bonus!!!

They also had pony rides, boutique & food vendors...these cost mula, but still so fun!! Some of my cousins came out to celebrate and play with us this year! Thanks for making the drive you guys!! Love you!

It was super chilly so we had to be extra bundled!

Here is my little giraffe and little pink birdie all snuggled!



Tegan was chilly willies!

Don't you just want to pinch those cheekies?! I know I do!



Here is one of the Santa pictures...This year Tegan asked for Sponge Bob mouth wash! Haha...too funny, right! I don't let her watch Sponge Bob (not a huge fan...not for little ones anyway) But Daddy thinks he is funny...so they watch it together sometimes. Tegan wanted me to buy some Sponge Bob mouth wash at the grocery store, I told her mommy wasn't buying Sponge Bob.....Haha, well she didn't forget about that and asked Santa instead!

Do you notice anything funny about this picture?

(Where's Tensley?)

Santa and Sister's! Tegan was so excited to see him! Tensley wanted to keep touching his beard!
