We try to do Christmas cards every year, and I knew the time was coming to start thinking about it. I actually had thought about it much earlier in the year, but it just never worked out. My kids did really well even though it was VERY windy and in the 40's they never complained! None of these made the card,so I thought I would share them with you! I really don't like myself in the first one, but I love Titus in the cowboy hat (it's my Dad's!) so I had to share it! Doesn't he look cute!
Have a great day!
(Thanks for taking them,Mom!)

Our next pioneer craft I got from this site. Brie loved this, Zeke not as much! He still tried. Brie turned her weaving into LIV girl skirts! She made 3-4. Because it interested her I got out my crocheting and she learned to do a chain. I'm going to work with her on finger knitting as well. I'm not going to go into detail on how we did this, just click the link above! (it has great directions!)
All the way back in October we had a birthday party for my hubby and his brother. They have birthdays just a few days apart. They both love football, especially Notre Dame. (for some crazy reason!!!) After looking around on Pinterest I decided a football party would be easy to pull off!
We had an easy menu of brats, hot dogs, and BBQ pork sandwiches. I found this neat "snackadium" on Pinterest. I knew I had to make it, it looked so cool! I made mine a little different, but with the same idea! I borrowed these cute little white trays from my sil, thanks Megan! If you look at the original you can see they had a large guacamole "field" and end zones that are cheese and salsa. Only a few of those attending will eat guacamole so I didn't want a whole field of it! I didn't want the poor avocados to feel bad, so my field and end zones were all the same size...I think it still turned out cool!
The original had bacon wrapped hot dogs around the field, since we were already eating hot dogs I didn't want more hot dogs around the field. It also wasn't a super healthy meal so I put carrots and celery around the field, to give us a little serving of veggies. I used carrots and celery for players too. We bought some brown cardstock and used that to help hold the chips,or fans, in! The fans were potato chips,tortilla chips,Doritos, and crunchy Cheetos. We used Slim Jim's for the goal posts. Multiple times the fans got a little rowdy resulting in tearing down the goal posts!! =)
The only thing I forgot was to put sour cream yard lines on the field. This was really easy and would be awesome at any football themed party, or for the Superbowl.
