Family Pictures…What Should We Wear?

I am a bit obsessed with getting family pictures done. I think it captures the moment we are at, in time with our ages and interests. It holds that moment forever and you can enjoy it whenever. That being said, each year when the time is approaching, I do begin to stress about what we should wear for the photo shoot. I have taken many spins on color schemes and thought I would share.

Christmas Tree Ornaments and Decorations You Can Make With Your Child/ren

If you are anything like myself, you LOVE doing crafts with your kids…especially around the holidays. If you happen to be nostalgic, you can whip those babies back out year after year when the holiday season approaches and it will trigger fond memories of when your kids were the age they made the craft. I’m a sucker for the Hallmark Channel movies, hot cocoa with marshmallows and candy canes, decorating the tree with the most gaudy ornaments (but they are made by us and each one has a special place in my heart), the Santa experience, going to holiday gatherings, cookie decorating parties, etc. I can’t get enough of the Christmas spirit!

The Christmas Pickle…

I’m sorry but I can’t enough of the pickle tradition this year! Every time I think about it, it makes me chuckle and I want my family to be a part of the tradition…so we are starting this year! We have implemented a lot of traditions but I think this is one my kids WILL LOVE! My husband, on the other hand, is a bit skeptical and gives me the good ole eye roll every time I talk about it. Just wait, he will be the biggest supporter once he sees it played out.
