Each year I try to make the holidays even more memorable and magical than the last. Christmas is my favorite time of year. I love spending time with family, decorating the tree, wrapping gifts, baking goodies, and admiring the lights strung throughout the neighborhood. But the best part of the holidays? Creating new traditions to share with my daughter. From exchanging mother/daughter ornaments to building a candy encrusted gingerbread house together, I am a firm believer that you can never have to many traditions to build upon. That’s why we need one more festive addition to our holiday routine! We’re making our own Advent calendar with glittery ornament pouches because it’s one creative method to count down the days until Santa’s arrival. I don’t know why it took me so long to craft my own but I absolutely adore the concept of getting a special surprise each day in the month of December. It makes it even more exciting for Toodie and myself as we inch closer to the big day.

The spookiest time of year is upon us and I am bursting with excitement. If every month could be like October I would be the happiest human being on the planet. As a horror movie junkie and lover of all things creepy-crawly, bewitching, and gruesome-it’s been a rather long nine months getting here. Halloween is right around the corner and that means it’s time to re-stock the candy stash, bust out the ghostly decor, and get started on those festive desserts I love making. It’s never to early to conjure up ghoulish goodies! Toodie and I wasted no time in getting into the Halloween spirit with these Frightfully Fun Frankenstein Pudding Cups.

As a parent the task of creating a memorable and fun lunchbox can seem like a chore, especially during the first few weeks of school when we’re running around like headless chickens. It can be a hectic time for all of us and the struggle of getting back into a routine is the real deal. From waking up before the sun rises to dragging your half asleep kiddo out of bed- packing a lunch that makes a statement is probably the last thing on your mind. I get it. There are days I suffer from a lack of creative juices and have no clue how to turn an everyday turkey sandwich into a masterpiece. But sometimes us moms and dads stumble upon products that inspire us and that’s all we need to go from a boring brown bag lunch to a brilliant themed bento box.

Is your family prepared to head back to school? I can’t believe we only have a few days left! After a long summer of sunshine, relaxation, and endless fun it can be hard for children to get back into the swing of things without a fuss.

As you may have noticed, we are patiently waiting in excitement for the release of the Shaun The Sheep Movie next week! The movie theater has been our sanctuary this summer when the weather is icky and the sunshine is hiding behind the clouds. Sometimes popcorn and a few good laughs are all you need to cure the rainy day blues. As Shaun goes on his epic adventure from the farm to a big city we get to see all of the silly shenanigans that follow him and his flock. If the movie is anything like than trailer than I am expecting quite a few hilarious scenes.

I never thought I would willingly admit this but over the years it’s been brought to my attention that I have become a greeting card hoarder collector. With two full boxes sitting in the closet it’s hard to deny my fondness for those with a heart warming message or beautiful designs on the front. They always find a way to suck me in, especially when I get lost in Walmart at 2 in the morning and am reminded of how many celebrations call for warm wishes throughout the year. Luckily, they have a huge selection of affordable Hallmark cards starting at just 47 cents a piece. It’s easy to go in with the intention of picking up one or two and leave with a dozen in your cart. They also carry wrapping paper, tissue paper, and bows to complete your gift.

Despite all of the gloomy weather that has taken over South Florida lately I am still looking forward to a summer full of sunshine and outdoor fun. Hopefully by the time school lets out next month the rain clouds will have passed and we will be able to enjoy what Florida is known for, warm beautiful weather. While the days are still generally hot, in the high 90’s, we have been spending more time inside to avoid the rain, mud, and mess that greets us when we venture into the backyard. Keeping the excitement indoors, a S’mores Summer awaits us!
