Twas the Night Before Christmas :: Craft Ideas
Aren’t you getting excited? I just love this time of year and love that my daughter is all about Santa these days! What a special time in their lives and I am happy to prolong this magical wonder. I have a couple crafts that I wanted to share with you that are really fun to put together.

Putting the HAHAHA in the HOHOHO
Image courtesy of Flickr It’s December (very much so) and my tree’s up but there’s nothing under it. Unless you count the tree skirt … does that count? And yes, you read that right: nothing under it! I always put a lot of thought into what I get every one. I want them to go “wow, just what I needed” or “I love it” so I do a lot of looking and window shopping [procrastinating]. What happens each and every year and seems to get later and later (pretty soon I’ll be out with all the men on Christmas Eve scurrying … oh who am I fooling I usually am out *lol*).…

All I want for Christmas is…
SWEETS! And even more and more and more! “Don’t want a doll! No dinky tinker toy!”* I want chocolate, cakes, brownies, fudge, and the like! Oh, I’d also really enjoy it more if I did not gain any weight too!

So without wasting any more of your time, and because I’m starving (wanting to lick spoons and bowls really bad) I’ve listed some favorites I’ve run across that you can share with friends/family and even make as gifts this holiday.

The Happiest Little Elf
It’s that time of year again. With what feels like the blink of an eye, we’re back to celebrating the holiday season. It seems that with each passing year, as the kids get older, this special time of year seems to roll around faster and faster. I don’t know about you, but I dread the day when the kiddies no longer scamper down the stairs on Christmas morning and squeal with delight at the sight of presents under the tree. I never want the magic to end! Somewhere around mid-December of last year, my family was ready for Christmas, but it wasn’t quite ready for us. The tree has been…
