Once again we went with Shutterfly for our Christmas cards, and I have to say this is my favorite one yet! Make sure to check out their selection---you can still do New Year's cards! :)
Merry Christmas Friends!

Let the Good Times Roll!
As I look at the calendar, I cannot believe next week is Christmas. This year has FLOWN by!
This past week has been a busy one for us. On Saturday, we had my husband's Christmas party downtown. It was your usual awkward conversation but afterwards him and I went out for a night on the town!
Below you'll see a photo of us out that night and then yummy breakfast the next morning. Breakfast is my favorite meal, but since having kids we don't get out for breakfast as much as we would like.
Then on Monday, I had a KMB Little Gym Holiday party for the kiddos. The boys had fun as usual and weren't game on getting their photos take at the Christmas photo station.
My favorite part of the week was seeing Nolan's Christmas play! The boy seriously belted out his lines, and I can't describe the emotions you feel as you watch your child perform. Pride, anxiety, joy, fear, and all that rolled into one!

I mean how cute is this wise man?
Last night my KMB team and I had our annual Favorite Things Party. Have you been to one? They are so fun! Everyone gives one of their "favorite things" and tells why it's their favorite. My contribution was a book---love this author!
Big surprise right? Anyhow tonight I have another small Christmas gathering with my friends.
Hope you've had a fun week too!

This House Needs a Mouse {Review}
As most of you know, I'm a HUGE book reader. I hope that both my boys find a love for reading too, so I'm always looking for great books that intrigue and keep their attention for more than 30 seconds.
This House Needs a Mouse written by C. Jeffrey Nunnally is a story of a mouse who's tired of his cage existence who wants more out of his life. He soon meets a family that is looking for a solution to the crumbs in their house and has a perfect new life. However, some unfortunate events turn his new lifestyle into havoc, and he has to find ways to overcome these obstacles.
This book has wonderful illustrations and kept the attention of both my four year old and two year old. They had so much fun following the story of this most adventurous mouse!
This book also is great for those learning to read with its repetition or just older children that love a good story!
This House Needs A Mouse is available now on the book's website, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Big Tent Books. It will make the perfect Christmas present for your little ones!

More Holiday Festivities!
The holiday festivities started early over here and continued over this past week and weekend.
We held a KMB Holiday DIY Mom's Night Out at The Back Porch Mercantile. It was such a beautiful store, and I wanted everything. Not to mention the owner's creative talent!

Then on Saturday, I braved the dreary and drizzly day to take the boys to some fun on the Holiday Square. They weren't much for the outside activities, but they were more interested in the trains and toys in the toy store.
On Sunday, we FINALLY decorated the Christmas tree!

And on Sunday night we went and visited a different park decorated with lights!

Bring on the Jingle!
This past weekend our household embraced the Christmas spirit! I'm sure since we've started early, we'll get tired of it by the time Christmas actually gets here...but for now we are enjoying the season!
First stop was finding and cutting down the perfect Christmas tree!
After some pizza and a Conley nap, we decided to grab some coffee (for the adults), and a cookie (for the boys) we headed to a park near the zoo that is full of lights.
We then were still feeling in the Christmas spirit and headed downtown to see all the holiday festivities!
What's on your holiday bucket list?
