itchin' to decorate

I'm excited for Thanksgiving don't get me wrong. Not for the food which I used to be excited about.

But for the family time and the day after! Black Friday baby!

Alot of our shopping might be online this year but Troy and I have made it a tradition to go now. Minus the coffee for me. I used to go by myself and surprise him with the goodies I fought for..but after hearing my BFF and her hubby always do it I thought we can too!

I do decorate for Thanksgiving and the kids have crafts they do every year but it's the same stuff. Gotta find some new turkey ideas!

So for Xmas we are going to mix it up.

I'm gonna share a Xmas craft every week that I do with the kids. Probably something I found online. I'll link up to the craft too.

Also a Cooking with the Kids post every week. Doesn't everyone wanna see my cuties cook with me? Well you are.

I really like this button wreath. Since I have a wall of buttons this will work.




for the kids from this tutorial





and for me...love these and I have the best buttons for them

So we are going to get all Xmas crazy on you! This Xmas is the best one yet for so many reasons. Love my family to pieces. We are so blessed.

That's sounds great, can you take on 3 more for crafts? lol My 3 would happily volunteer.

Tristan is still asking about Max and Mila by the way. We where leaving the other day and you where gone and the kids and Troy where out and you should have seen the way Tristan ran up to Max and Mila. Max hugged him so tight and he was showing Max something, it was so cute :) Please have us over soon so Tristan will stop asking, lol.

I really need to work harder at getting them more involved with cooking too, they love it but always ask if they can help when the oil is popping away, lol.

Can't wait to see all the projects you guys do over there!
