Thursday’s Thought- Family Subway Art

Today I am posting my Family Subway Art for those of you that did not see it on facebook.

This is just a fun subway art that tells how I feel about my family.  I have formatted it in two different sizes, 8 x 10  and also 11 x 14.  This would make a fun gift for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, a wedding, birthdays, or how about just a cute little pick me up gift for someone you love!  (Maybe yourself!)

This is the 8 x 10 format.

Grandma and Grandpa Dates

Part of our granddaughter’s Christmas gift was to have a date with Grandma and go to the beauty salon! So last week we went to a local beauty school and each of the girls got their hair done and their fingernails painted!

It was so much fun and the girls loved it!

 I think that we might even have to do it again sometime! :)

Look at how darling that hair is!  Each one of them turned out sooo cute!

Thursday’s Thought-It’s Not Easy…

Today’s thought is a humorous one from the Golden Girls!

Who didn’t love them?

Although I really think that there is a quite a bit of truth in this statement! :)

Thoughts-2-000-It's-not-easy..

This printable is formatted to 8 x10 if you want to print one.

 Just right click over image and go to “save image as” and then save in one of your pictures files.  Or you can right click and go to “copy image”  then open your favorite program like Word or Presentations and right click again and go to paste.

So this is my tribute to all of you mothers out there!

Just know that it is not easy, but that you are doing it and you should be proud of the fact that you are doing it!

Have a great day! Love Ya!

Fun Family Game

I have just recently discovered a fun family game called “Spot It”.

This is a perfect game for everyone to play.   It is very easy to learn and it is a fun, fast paced game.

You can have anywhere from 2-8 players and we have played it with a wide range of age groups all together!

 You can actually go in and out of this game, if you need to check on something in the oven, change laundry,  change a diaper, you get the idea…then you can just jump right back into the game!

This is the game that we have:

Sinterklaas Party, Our Family Tradition

Several years ago, my oldest son served a mission for our church to the Netherlands.  So I asked him about some of the Christmas traditions while he was there and every year since we have celebrated Sinterklaas day in some way or another.

Feeding An Army

Yesterday for our Sunday dinner I made Stromboli.  This used to be a family favorite when my kids were all at home and we would make this a lot of times on Sunday night.  Now when I make this I have to make enough for an army..well almost! When we get together for Sunday dinner now we are up to 19 or 20 people depending on who is there.  It is fun chaos and the noise decible goes up considerably when everyone is there.  But it is great to see the cousins become good friends to each other!

Homemade Ice Cream in a Bag

A few days ago I had all the grand kids over for another little water party with the blow up slide.  They love the slide and we had a great time.  For a little treat we made homemade ice cream in a baggie!  They thought that it was kind of fun to each be able to make their own little bag of ice cream.  It is really easy to do…all you need is your favorite ice cream mix, zip lock baggies, ice and salt.  Then you have to shake, shake, shake it, like this: Continue reading

The Wood Connection Project

Yesterday I told you that I would show you the project that I came home with from The Wood Connection Store. So drum roll please:  Ta…Dah!

I got these cute wood letters and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with them.  I have a shelf in my living room and I wanted to put something cute on it.  We had new family pictures taken a couple of days ago, so I want to put some new pictures in this room and they will go perfect now!
