Shutterfly Chirstmas Card Giveaway

I have been thinking about my Christmas cards for quite awhile now. I was excited a couple weeks ago when I was looking at one of my favorite hair ideas blog and she had a post about an AWESOME giveaway from Shutterfly. This giveaway is for bloggers you go here- and follow the instructions and can get 50 free Christmas cards!! Who doesn't love getting things for free and I usually end up spending quite a bit of money on my Christmas cards. Although I have never used Shutterfly I am excited about this website because there a lot of choices to choose from. It is going to be super hard to pick which one I am going to use for our Christmas card. They have other great products to- like calendars and cute invitations.

In the things I have been seeing lately, bright colors are really in for Christmas cards- I love this one.

I love browns and I thought the presents were so cute!

I love the folded styles they had!

Fun in the Leaves

A couple weeks ago, when it was still warm, the gals got the rake out and played in the leaves. I have so many fun memories of playing in the leaves. My parents have a big maple tree in their yard and we would get a lot of leaves from it and our neighbor Donna had an awesome leave tree. My sister and I and the Christiansen gals made some epic houses out of leaves. We would make walls and rooms and have so much fun. The gals had a ton of fun playing, raking, and jumping in the leaves.

A 6 Year Olds Declaration of Love

My little Brooklyn is so boy crazy- I don't know what I am going to do with her. This is her conversation with me on the way to dance.

Brooklyn: "Mom, I have a boyfriend and it isn't even Justin. His name is Peydon."
Me: "He isn't in your class, how do yo know him?"
Brooklyn: "We chase each other all the time at recess. He had another girlfriend before me and she broke up with him. I told him I am SOO not breaking up with him."
(Imagine her using a dramatic voice, head bob, and rolling her eyes and such)
"And mom this is not just a crush- I like like him. And when we pass each other in the hall I'm like 'Hi, boyfriend' and he's like 'Hi, girlfriend'"

Heaven help us!!

We had a great Halloween this year! We started our festivities on Tuesday when our Ward had a Trunk-or-Treat. Then on Saturday we went to Sean's parents for a little party, did some trick or treating in Wellsville, and then ended our night at my Aunt Paula's for the annual party. The gals decided on what they wanted to be this year. Gracie wanted to be Tinkerbell (and we already had the costume- score!) Brooklyn wanted to be Dorothy and my good friend had the cutest Dorothy costume she let us borrow. All I bought this year for costumes was Brooklyn's shoes- yay!! The gals looked so cute and are loving all the candy they got. Sean looked awesome in his mullet wig and I told the gals I was dressing up as a mom (I am a dud and don't love Halloween)!
