Christmas Wreath

A couple of months ago, on the Making Memories blog, I saw this Halloween wreath. I thought it was super cute and decided to make one for Christmas.

If you want to give it a try, here are the supplies needed:

styrofoam wreath
double-sided patterned paper (I used about 10 sheets)
paper cutter
pen or pencil
hot glue
lollipop sticks
embellishments

Hopefully these not so great photos will show you how to do it. Let me know if you have any questions. Have fun!

Black Friday Pants

Getting up early for shopping this year did not sound appealing whatsoever. Could be the big belly I have to lug around. But, Teresa and I did hit a few stores later on in the day. And, I just have to show you the cutest little pants I found for our little man *on clearance* at Baby Gap.

I bought 0-3 months, and they are a lot cuter in person because they are so small. I'm thinking he will need to wear these on Easter Sunday. :)

Turkey Day

We have quite a bit of family..which I am so very thankful for. So..needless to say, we stay pretty busy during the holidays. We spent time with the Honeycutt side of the family on Wednesday night.


We ate a ton, played games and talked and laughed about everything. One of our cousins, Breanna, is 32 weeks pregnant, so we took some belly shots together. They are having a little girl, who will be about 8 weeks older than our little man. I can't wait to see them together.


Then, Thursday morning, I got up and started my cooking/baking extravaganza. Ha! I did make quite a bit...


Pumpkin bars, banana pudding, chocolate raviolis, sausage balls, green bean casserole, hot corn, and rolls. I had a nice butter explosion in the microwave too.

Strangely, the paper towel stayed on the cup.

We went to eat with at my mom's.


Where we had ALL this food...for just 5 people.

Needless to say, we had a ton left over.

Then, it was off to Yukon to see the Baker's. This is our biggest part of the family and it's always so much fun!!

Nana & Papa (they were watching pictures of their kids Lake Tahoe trip)..lots of laughs.


Laney & Raegan..playing together on the floor..and maybe eating a cookie or two.


Brady making big words with the Banangrams tiles...and then making Tom pronounce them.


And more watching video of the Tahoe trip. It's so funny to hear them crack up!!


All in all. A great day.
