Crafty Day!


Hansel(f) got into some mischief in the cabinets last night! :) If you'd like to get your hands on your very own Elf on the Shelf and his (or her) book, this week only, Target is offering a $5 gift card when you purchase the set there! :)

Check out this page for every SINGLE DIY project you could EVER think of! It's my new favorite site! (Aside, of course, from Pinterest!)

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!


Hansel(f) was found on the shelf this morning with crochet hook in hand and donning a new scarf! It is getting chillier here in Indiana, so he's on the right track! Super L thought it was AMAZING that he knew how to crochet his own scarf!

Want a few fun Christmas recipes to try out!???! Try this site with over 70 fun recipes! :)

Of course, Hansel(f) and a FAVORITE blog of mine with Black Friday fun!


Hansel(f) made himself right at home with some of the other Christmas decor in our house today. Curled up right above the kitchen sink so he could see everything that happens today!

Today, I'd love for you to check out this site! I'm local for the girl who runs this blog/site, but much of the ad match ups work for other areas as well. She does the weekly ad match ups for all of the stores in Indiana (and beyond). She has a special section this week with the ad match ups for BLACK FRIDAY!!!!! YAY! :) Her site is WONDERFUL! It's one of the ONLY sites that I visit EVERY single week! Friend her on facebook to get updates for everything!

One week with Hansel(f)! (and CAKE POP ideas!)


Hansel(f) was sitting sweetly in the wreath this morning when we woke up.

Take some time today to whip up these adorable Christmas cake pops! These, wrapped in cellophane with a bow, would be ADORABLE additions to any cookie plate as a *sweet* little gift this upcoming holiday season!

Come back the rest of the week for BLACK FRIDAY STEALS!!!!

Day 6 with Hansel(f)!


Today Hansel(f) hung around the top of our house rules sign. A possible reminder for Mister C and Super L to be nice and to follow all of the rules we have in our house? :) We shall see where he ends up tomorrow!

Check this link if you'd like some cute Christmas cookie packaging ideas! We are saving our glass frappuccino bottles, and I bought cardboard beer bottle carriers and personalized labels. We plan to put our homemade cookies in one side and two glass bottles of milk in the other side and give them instead of the traditional cookie/fudge plates! Everyone loves milk and cookies! :)

Day 5 and a sweet suprise!


Super L and Mister C woke up to find Hansel(f) lounging in a mug on the bar this morning. Super L recognized his name on the paper inside the bowl and asked what it was. We read the note from Hansel(f) and learned that Santa had sent early Christmas candy from the North Pole since Super L and Mister C have been being such good boys! Super L had to try one (before breakfast!), and I'm happy to report that the red Christmas trees are the "best ever"! :)

Check the links to the right to get some great ideas for your elf. If you don't have an elf and storybook set already, there's a link to the right for that too! There are also a few links for games, crafts, and other Christmas activities! Happy Holiday time!
