Real Christmas tree this year!

 This year we decided to do a real Christmas tree since I just can't come to grips of spending 200 plus dollars on a skimpy lil fake tree. Sooo we found this big ole sucker at home depot for 30$ Now that is a much better price! Boys helped me to decorate. Fun Fun! Now it feels like Christmas!!!

I think the LED lights look soo cool on the roof! 

Love the smell of a Real tree! aaaaaaaaaahhhhh! ♥

Christmas Crafts

Got a lil crafty this year and made some fun things i had around the house. I am totally addicted to the website www.pinterest.com !! Where i got my craft ideas from!

Here I took a picture frame i had. Aunt Annette gave this frame to us as a wedding gift. It had no backing. So i saw the idea from the website and thought what a cute way to use it! Glad i saved it! Bought Ribbon at Michaels for 2$ and the little plastic ornaments for a dollar each at Michaels also. And wala! A cute home made Ornament! i love it ! I can't get myself to hang it outside though because i don't want anything happening to the frame. Means too much to me.

Another fun idea from the pinterest website is this snowman. However the lady that I got the idea from used wood blocks and painted them. I just grabbed whatever boxes i had in closets that i realized were just taking up space... so i wrapped them in white construction paper and cut out the nose with orange construction paper. Then drew the eyes with permanent marker. Black Scarf with old bday party ribbon i had saved. I didn't realize that the stuff i consider junk can actually be put to good use! :) I've made more stuff.. and wish i could say these creations were my idea.. but no.. I don't have that knack to come up with stuff. heehee!
