Wet Bags

So have you ever been somewhere and your kids wets their pants, or your baby has a blowout. Or how about to a pool, or the beach and you have these wet bathing suits and don't know where to put them so everything else doesn't get wet. Well, here is the wet bag. A waterproof lined bag to put wet clothes or stuff in. All it is is a shower liner from the dollar tree, fabric for the outside and a zipper. This was my first time sewing a zipper, and I am very happy with the way they turned out. I am defiantly keeping one of these in my car.

Valentine Count Down

This was a fun quick project. I used a cookie sheet, and 2 packages of heart container from the dollar tree, glued down some scrapbook paper and added some number stickers to the containers. Tyson drilled 2 holes for me to hang it with some ribbon. I will put little love note, maybe a candy kiss or two and everyday till Valentines day the boys get to open one. I love advent calenders!

Button Love

Here is a cute little love frame made with buttons.

Grandma Cookie

Wyatt just loves his Grandma Cookie (we all do)! Two days ago Grandma Cookie was taking a nap on the couch and Wyatt just jumped right in the covers with her for some snuggle time with Grandma. Grandma Cookie had a cut on her leg and Wyatt was very protective about her "owie". Wyatt loves it when Grandma Cookie and Papa John come to visit.

FHE Basketball

Last week for a family night we took the boys and Aunt Mckenzie to the church to play some basketball. Everyone had a great time running around (Wyatt sliding the floor) and shooting baskets playing "pig".

Valentines

Okay, so I know it's early, but Hunter and I wanted to make them now, it looks a lot better in person. We took his picture, and then I made 2 cuts above and below his hand and then he put the lolly-pop through. Now he has to wait a month before he get to give them to his classmates.

Subway Art & Topiary

 So, I just love the crafts that you can do within a hour, they're the best! What made these great were that almost all (except the Styrofoam ball and bucket) were all bought at the dollar tree, so it makes the craft affordable. So here are the two crafts that were accomplished today. I had better hopes for the topiary, but it's still cute.

Thank you dollar store frame and black spray paint.

Car Seat Blankets

I made these back in October last year, but couldn't post them because there were Christmas presents. The first one is for baby Carlisle with matching reversible shoulder strap covers, and then the same for Holli (baby Seth). And the last one I made for my friend Brittney (baby Lily).

 

Dad vs. Boys

So the new thing for this new year for the boys is play fighting with dad. It is usually Wyatt and Hunter against Tyson and they usually fight on the bed so Tyson can knock them down and it won't hurt. They all enjoy it, and it somewhat wears them out (if that is ever possible with our boys).

Game Night

The Sunday after Christmas we had my Mom & Jay, and our friends the Aceys over for dinner and then some games afterwards. It is always fun getting together with friends and family.

While we played games Wyatt and Owen watched Toy Story 3.

Christmas Day

We spent Christmas day at home and at Grandma Sandi's & Grandpa Ken's, and dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Greats. Santa brought the boys a red wii for Christmas along with some shooting ear muffs for kids. My mom and brother came out for breakfast, and my brother came out again later in the evening for dinner. Tyson's brother & sister and their families came out in the morning too. Here are some pictures that sums up our day. 

Hunter playing the harmonica

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve at my mom's house and had dinner there with her when she got home from work. The boys opened their Christmas Eve Pj's (Hunter got Mario, and Wyatt's was a Buzz Lightyear). Our sweet neighbors gave the boys gifts too, so they opened them and their present from Grandma Stephie.
