Back again to share our Instagram play by plays!

{ I’m limemade if you want to follow along during the week. }

We tried to get the kids to watch Home Alone for the first time.  They didn’t get it.

“I don’t like this Mom.”  “I thought you said it was funny.”  “Can we watch something else?”

Fine.

We watched Prep & Landing.

{But I think the kids are crazy!  Home Alone is a classic!! Whateve’s kids.}

I got my Pick Your Plum grab bag in the mail and I promised myself when all the dresses were done I’d get to open it.  Ummmmm,. it was AWESOME!  As usual.

These sparkly booties were a sign from God that I need another baby.

Joe disagrees. Party Pooper.

Aren’t they adorable though?!  I know.  So stinkin’ cute!

 Too much goodness in that box to even list!  So much fun for sure.  Thanks PYP!

A ton of fun Christmassy Crafting!  With tutorials on lots of the things I made coming soon.  Some may have to wait ’til a Christmas in July series I think I might do though, because Oh My Elf it’s only 3. DAYS. AWAY!!!!

The two bigs at Great Grandma Diedrick’s birthday brunch. See?  Sometimes they like each other.

Running Errands.

Again.

Ugh.

♥

I finally kept my promise and posted the Scrabble Tile Pillow Tutorial. 

Phew.  That only took forever.

♥

George had his first preschool Christmas Concert.

All little boys should wear ties all the time.  Just sayin’.

♥

Major milestone for the Ginny-bean.

Pigtails!  Totally channeling Cindy Lou Who, since we’ve been watching The Grinch nearly every day.  {What? You don’t watch it every day?  You don’t know all the words by heart?  Your favorite part isn’t when “his heart pops” like it is George’s? What’s wrong with you? }

♥

Yesterday was a Snow Day!  At our house that means sweatpants and Santa socks,

Christmas cookie baking,

and Stak Tree Makin’!

{I’ll have to show you how to make these, they are TONS OF FUN!}

♥

But today we saw the most wonderful part of the Christmas Season.

The Reason for the Season.

The Living Nativity Play put on by the second graders at our school.  It was awesome.

{I’m especially partial to Storyteller Number Two.  She’s cute. }

I love our school. 

♥

Well, if I don’t chat with you before Tuesday {OH MY ELF 3 DAYS!}

Please….

Have a very Blessed and Merry Christmas!
