Laughing all the way...

Christmas here is exactly what you would expect with 3 little ones.  Fun, Fun, Fun…  The kids were so excited even over the littlest things.  Waking up at 4 am saying, “He came Mom… he brought us gifts Dad wake up!”   Started our day that I will always cherish.  Knowing full well that these days will not be here forever I am so blessed to be able to witness this.  We do not shower them with gifts but believe me they got their fill.  Between grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends they were seeing the wrapping paper fly!  What a joyous year we have had as a family.  How do you bring in the New Year?  I would love to hear about it.  I will share how we did ours next week!

So Sorry...

For the past 11 weeks I have been extremely under the weather due to… guess what???  Jerry and I are expecting another Duffner baby in July.  We are truly blessed again and are truly excited.  The kids are so excited as well.  Ella keeps asking me daily “how much longer now Mom?” and Quinn is dying to know if it is a boy or a girl.  Braeden thinks he is in my tummy again…  so cute to see them as excited as we are.  So as you can imagine I have not been getting dressed everyday and feeling the effects of “morning sickness” all day!  I am hoping to get back on my feet again here quickly and get back in touch with this blog world again soon!  So sorry for the delay…  Merry Christmas to you all and God Bless… 

Letter Perfect???

Well I don’t know about perfect but here is the ornament for this week!  Making these adorable letter ornaments for each one of your kiddos is simple and easy!   I took the Creative Imaginations 8” bare elements chipboard lowercase letters, added my very favorite art glitter along with ribbon and a couple of buttons…  I told you it was simple!  The kiddos love seeing these hang at there level.  The large scale on the tree is a bit whimsical and very fun!
