I pinned Elf on the Shelf ideas this year, thinking that this would be the first year that maybe he would visit our house. Nay! I realized that The Destroyer still wasn’t ready. She’d never be able to not “touch” our little elf and ruin the whole thing. So we’ll… Continue reading
In a previous “Try it Tuesday”, Tabitha and I made our Christmas paper trees and had decided that we needed a third in order to keep the rule of three in sync (see Paper Christmas Trees post). Tabitha looked around on Pinterest and found a tutorial for a tall burlap… Continue reading
People are so creative and clever. I swear, every time I get on Pinterest I am totally excited, yet I also feel like a total idiot because I think, how did I not think of that? That’s a great idea, easy, cheap, cool, whatever. That is exactly what I thought… Continue reading

Well, we survived another year of trick or treating. Actually, I love, love, love our neighborhood sooo much. It is the best place to trick or treat because of all of the kids and families, so fun and safe, everyone knows everyone and it makes everything really stress free. If… Continue reading
