Advent Calendars

Advent Calendars made from mini muffin tins. You hide a little surprise in each muffin space, then cover the hole with Scrapbook paper lined with magnet paper (kind of like those magnetic business cards people are always leaving on your door). These are so fun, right now we are using the Halloween one and the birthday one (Serenity's b-day is on October 24th) and the kids love checking for a little hidden surprise every day.

Halloween - I used 3, 12 mini muffin pans

Christmas - I used a 24 mini muffin tin.

Birthday - I used 3, 12 mini muffin pans

Autumn Sign

I cut the wood to do this project over a year ago. I finally pulled it out and finished it just in time for the 1st day of fall.

Happy Autumn Everyone!

4th of July Flag

I made this wood flag out of 2x4s. So easy and super cute (I still need to add the ribbon though, it ties around the whole thing with a bow on top)

Cake Bites

One of my new favorite treats - Cake Bites. So yummy and cute. These are supposed to look like mini cupcakes. I got the recipe from http://www.bakerella.com/

Little Brother

I found the cutest "little brother" onsie at Carters. They also had "big sister" and "big brother" shirts, but they didn't have a shirt big enough for Jared, so I bought the little brother onsie and the big sister shirt and made a big brother shirt for Jared. I can't wait to see them on!
