Cast Iron Skillet Cookie Kits | #holidays #thanksgiving
I ran across something else from my new favorite catalog that I think will be perfect for the holidays! I love my cast iron, but I don't have anything this small! My kids like it when we order things (when we have time, extra money, and the patience to actually go out to eat!) that come in these little cast iron skillets! This is actually a good deal because the skillet comes with the mix of your choice. I will ALWAYS choose brownie over chocolate chip cookie. Always. Cast Iron Skillet Cookie Kit comes with practically everything you need for…
National Geographic Kids Weird and Creepy Facts Books Giveaway (11/22)
If your boys are like mine, they like weird, gross, abnormal, and flat out creepy things! National Geographic has a new set of books out that are perfect for my boys, because The Gamer thinks he knows everything there is to know about everything, and these books have help bring him down a notch and realize that there's a whole big world out there of things that even he doesn't know! Of course, after dinner one night, I gave Braxton the first book called Ultimate Weird But True 2, and the first page he and The Entertainer opened the book…
Are our families being singled out by the police? | #safety #kids
When we moved into this neighborhood, we were so happy to find out that we actually have fantastic neighbors as well as kiddos in the same age groups as ours. Aside from the fact that there were a couple of teenage boys who are across the street, we couldn't be happier. Of course, in getting to know the neighbors, we love that the teenage boys are actually great kids, and they play with our boys and one will do anything to protect our teenage daughter. I love that. LOVE that. Our street has very little traffic outside of the people…

The other night, we were sitting around the table, and the boys were going through the nicknames we've given everyone in the family. Although on the blog, she's "The Teen" Andy has always given her the name Weirdo, so the boys proceeded to go through everyone: The Weirdo The Gamer The Entertainer The Screamer or The Minion The MoneyMaker The Recorder (because I take pics and write about everything) So then, the The Entertainer decided to keep going with it. Kylie's the best singer. Braxton's the best at playing games. Dad's the best tooter. Mom's the He had to stop…

DIY Thanksgiving Candle Crafts | #thanksgiving #diy
Check out these really neat Thanksgiving Candle Crafts! Some of these are really simple (they just look complicated!) yet elegant enough to be a center piece for your Thanksgiving meal or just to have around the house to get into the spirit! I saw several different "Giving Thanks" candle sets like this, but this one is my FAVORITE! Maybe it's the plates! We had those when I was growing up! They totally made this work! This is the most elegant of the corn candles that I saw. I did see some with husks on them, but I would be so…

I figured I need to get this Halloween post up and out of the way before I start in on Thanksgiving and Christmas! :) The kiddos had a good time last night. The Teen decided that because she couldn't go to her friend's house (on a school night) to watch movies, that she was going to stay home. we had her hand out candy while we took the boys out! Here's all of them before we took The Gamer decided he was going to go as a Clone. This costume was as cheap as they get, because he wore it…
