Christmas Break

I will start by saying that I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS!  Both of my kids really enjoyed Christmas this year!  My 3 year old thoroughly enjoyed it!  She is just now old enough to really understand and have a fun time!  So lots of memories and fun times were made!

I have taken the term “Christmas Break” quite literally this year.  I usually try to cram as much stuff into my breaks as possible!  But, not this year!  I have really just hung out with the kiddos!  I have done a little cleaning and organizing, but not much considering that I have been off for about 10 days now. 

So, now I have hit panic mode…with only a couple more days I have a list of things to do!

Has anyone else done the same thing?!?!

I have a couple of projects that I want to post!  But I need to go snap a few pics. first! 

Stay Tuned!

I am so slacking!

I have been such a slacker on here lately!  Hopefully, I still have a few people that are still hanging in there with me!  I am just finding it really hard to find a balance between my REAL job..full time Kindergarten Teacher, mom, wife, and my blogging and crafty side.  (If any of you have it down…please clue me in on your secret!)

So, what HAVE I been up to lately?!?!  I have had a few free minutes to whip up some fun and crafty stuff!  Just not a lot of time to blog about them.  (I need someone to just transcribe for me!)  I have TONS of blog post swimming around in my head!

I whipped up two Christmas outfits for my daughter and my niece.  They turned out super cute!

I saw this awesome tutorial on how to sew in a reverse applique on a shirt.  I followed it to make a cute candy cane shirt to match the ruffled pants.  This is a really awesome tutorial and oh so easy!!!  LOVED IT!
