This year I decided I wanted to do something special for my boys. I got them each their own Christmas tree. :) It's a tradition I wanted to start so I went for it. My oldest son's room is blue, so his tree has blue ornaments, and the baby's room is green, so his tree has green ornaments. What do you think?

NUTS!
I was sitting in the Target parking lot getting my purse and organizing myself before I left to shop and when I looked up, this is what I saw. I was so glad I had my camera on me. Isn't this a super cute squirrel moment? lol He just sat there for about a minute proudly showing off his nut. Then he took off. Bon Appetit!

Monday Madness! No Limits 2 Me
There are so many great store in Etsy. But what makes the greatest stores stand out, to me, is quality of the product and customer service. I used to work in sales, so I am very picky about who I deal with when dealing with sales. Missy of No Limits 2 Me is AMAZING. I was desperate and needed a custom made plate right away - she had it made and mailed to me by when I needed it. She was a delight to work with and so amazing. And the plate is ADORABLE. So, here's the deal though, I never got a picture of the plate. 0_0 AND it was a birthday present for my mother in law. They dont have a camera and I haven't been over there. So alas, I will have to post it later. I will get a picture of it when I go there for Thanksgiving. ;) But she also makes some other amazing items. Her tutus are super cute. Check out No Limits 2 Me here.

Shutterfly Christmas Cards!
One of my favorite things about Christmas time is getting photo Christmas cards from friends and family. I love to display them. I also love sending out my own cards, and this year, I get to send out a card w/ a picture of my brand new family of 4! I have plans to get together with my sister so she can take my family pictures. Hopefully the boys will cooperate! I love coordinating our wardrobes so we can all match. This year the boys will be wearing red, so I would love to find a pretty red dress! Then I will be able to get on Shutterfly and choose one of their many beautiful Christmas cards!
Have you been on shutterfly? There are SO many cards to choose from!
Check out Shutterfly for your Christmas card needs!
Here are some of my favorites!
NOTE: I will be receiving 50 free holiday cards from Shutterfly for letting you know about their cards. I was not compensated in any other way for this post. And I really do think Shutterfly's quality is really good and the prices are fair. If you're a blogger and want 50 free cards all you have to do is apply.

Halloween
My poor hubby got hurt this past weekend and could not go trick or treating with us. I went with my sister and her husband and daughter. My boy had SO much fun. We didn't do anything last year so this was a first for him. The first house we went to he had no idea what was going on. Then he quickly learned all he had to do was say "trick or treat" and he'd get candy in return. Boy was he excited! He held his auntie's hand the whole time. I was taking care of baby boy. So my sister and brother in law were so sweet to help me out. The kids had an absolute blast. AND my brother in law was so thrilled to teach my boy all about Halloween. lol
Sheriff Woody - it was too hot for pants. lol

My Personal Chef
My hubby is a great man... He is a wonderful husband, father, provider and everything I ever dreamed of. The other night I was swamped with work, house chores, taking care of the boys... He jumped right in and made dinner. It wa so sweet. On his way home after a long day's of work, he stopped at the store and picked up a few items he wanted because he had a menu in mind. He got home and made the yummiest pizza. He is an amazig cook. He can whip up pretty much anything. He made a chicken and veggie pizza. It was SOOOOO good. I was very impressed.
