Getting Ready for Valentine's Day!

1. I am a big fan of peel and stick foam crafts. Thank you, crafty stores!
2. Lincoln asked, "Can I give these to my friends tomorrow?" When I said yes, he said, "Yay!"

Christmas Countdown: Days 5 & 6

We were Christmas shopping yesterday, so today we had to play catch-up! We tried to craft some bird treats, but so far one has been stolen by a fat squirrel. We did have fun making them, and Lincoln learned he didn't like birdseed!

We also made some weather predictions, and without trying, we all made different ones! I will have to have a special surprise for the winner!

Christmas Countdown: Day One

In honor of my mom, a huge Peanuts/Snoopy fan, I found a Peanuts Christmas Countdown calendar. Today, we were making paper snowflakes. (Each day has a craft/activity.). Lincoln was loving the chance to use scissors, but mostly cut his paper into oblivion.

Crafty Memories

My mom made tons of fabric crafts. She used to make them for Christmas houses--the precluders of craft fairs. She made a lot for me--as we got out our Christmas decorations, we realized that we could decorate a whole little tree just with her homemade ornaments. Here is a sampling of just the angels she had made!

Thanksgiving Wrap-Up

I am thankful for boys who want to craft turkey puppets, dads who help us make chocolate pilgrim hats, fun tables to set for friends and family, and a darling kids table.
