Edible gifts are great!

I have this great friend named Paige. A while back I was telling her how I feel like a bad wife and mother when I'm in a 'creative flow'. I don't want to cut into my 'creative time' AKA nap time to start dinner, so when I'm creating I don't make dinner.

Well, my thoughtful friend, that is also the wife of a law student, was very creative in her gift giving and gave me frozen meals for Christmas this year! How thoughtful and creative is she? We ate some of them this week! Now that was a good gift! Thanks Paige!

I also received a fabulous gift from Lynette this week! I love having a great friend that does vinyl! I got a block that says "A family is a gift that lasts forever" as well as some other sayings that I can't wait to use! Thanks my friend! I can't wait to play with them!

In other news I did a photo shoot yesterday for my friend Kristen that just had her baby a week ago. He is so sweet and I loved taking pictures of such a new little baby! Thanks you guys. I haven't edited yet, but I wanted to get a couple up for you. Here are a few that jumped out at me...






And, I'm happy to say that the majority of my Christmas cards are ready to be mailed! Yahooo and it DOES feel like an accomplishment! I'm happy to have them done! I have a few stragglers and my gifts to mail still, but the cards are done!

I took Q and G shopping yesterday. I took them one at a time and we shopped for the other sibling. That was fun. It was great being with them each individually and fun to see what they wanted to get each other. They have been able to keep their secrets so far... let's see if it can last another week!

This week we'll be watching Christmas movies as a family, building gingerbread houses, looking at lights and finishing up our Christmas shopping. What a magical time of year!
