Checking In

Hello everyone! So sorry about my super long absence. I honestly can't remember the last time I wrote a real post. I've been enjoying my month off of school with my family and friends.
I'll be back in January with some holiday catch-up posts.
For the time being, I've enjoyed reading all of your posts.

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!
Have a great New Years!
Talk to you in 2012!

Sibling Bonding

So Wyatt (youngest brother) has been staying with Zeb (oldest younger brother) and me since Wednesday.

Well really I should leave Zeb out of it.
He sleeps alllllll the time.

But Wyatt and I have been having loads of fun.
Movies, cookies, fro-yo.

Hope y'all are enjoying the last few days before Christmas!
Only three days left!
Ahhhh!!!

PS Happy First Day of Winter!
Luckily Too bad it's 70 degrees here in Georgia.

First Time for Everything

I just won my first giveaway!
Lisa, whom I have known for over three years, was hosting this giveaway. The prize is a gorgeous necklace from Shabby Apple.


Thanks for hosting the giveaway, Lisa!
Check out her blog here. She is super creative and super sweet!

Side note: I have known Lisa since my senior year in high school. I was her teacher apprentice in her second grade classroom. Ever since then, she has graciously allowed me to visit her classroom to do all of my field work. She's the best!

9 More Days!!!

Only 9 days until Christmas. 9 Days. 9 DAYS!!!!
Can't believe it.

Time for some Friday Favorites: Christmas Edition
Favorite Holiday Drink: Caramel Brulee Latte


DIY Project: Christmas Tree


I turned this tree into an ornament. It was the easiest DIY ever. I just found a small stick outside, tied some ribbons around it, then added a star and a hook at the top. Voila!

School Activity:


"If Santa was stuck in my chimney, I would..."
I bet there would be a lot of funny responses to this prompt.

Ornament Idea: House Keys


Movie: Elf

Ornament Swap!

I have participated in so many swaps for Christmas this year.
I just love Christmas so much!
It's so much fun spreading the joy to others.

This swap was from The Smitten Mintons and Mackey Madness.
I was paired with Jenny from Strickly Strickland's.
She was so sweet! She sent me not one ornament, but two! 
Annnndd she sent me Vanilla Bean Noel soap...my favorite!



How cute is this little guy?!
I absolutely love the little monkey. And the martini glass was perfect since I just turned 21!


We're going to get our family tree today and I'm so excited to put these ornaments up!
Thanks so much Jenny! So glad I found you through this!

Dunzo

Officially done with my first semester of Education School!
Let the Christmas Break festivities begin!

Also if you are a Harry Potter fan, this video is for you.


I may or may not have cried.
And bought the song on iTunes.

What can I say? I'm a Potter fan for life.
