I stumbled across this cute little advent calender for the kiddos....Advent calenders are a MUST at our house....but they are always so bulky and huge!...and who needs a chocolate first thing in the morning ( besides me) I know Gum isn't much better.....but it is a little better. :)
I am going to try and make these with my sister in laws in Utah this weekend....

We decided to go for it...( nothing like decided the day before we leave) ....so here we come 12 hour drive ...we have missed you!!! Hopefully we don't lose our binkies this time!
Happy Thanksgiving....

Where did November go?
Have I mentioned that I can't find the cord to get pictures from my camera? Which really makes me mad...because I have some really cute ones on there. The kids piano recital pics turned out super cute, Hope's birthday pics, etc etc....
So, just boring ol' me tonight. Seth and the bigger kids ( not Sadie)...are attempting a back yard campout tonight....We wanted to do something fun and free..so we are giving it a try. We roasted marshmallows on the BBQ for Smores....and I brought Sadie in for bed.... We'll see how long they last!!!
I went and saw Twilight on opening night....yep..midnight baby....with 20, 000 14 yr olds! I went with a few gals from my Ward....it was so fun! I am glad I went..I enjoyed it. I really loved the books....so I think the movie would have to be REALLY bad for me to not enjoy it. Like, I love Edward.....for reals. :)
I have been busy tonight making Ella's 4th Birthday party invitations. They turned out so cute! She wanted to have a Wizard of Oz birthday...so I found ruby slipper stickers and glittered them all up ...put in on the shimmery blue Bazzill card, with gingham backing ( like Dorthy's dress) I diecutted and glittered up some big e's and threw them on there too with some sparkley red ribbon. Ella approves!...she loves sparkles! Hard to believe she will be 4 in 2 weeks!!!!!
Thanksgiving is just around the corner....which makes me miss home and loved ones....( I know I know..I was just there!)...but I think we all miss the Thanksgivings we might have grown up with...I certainly miss not having to cook!!! IT wouldn't be so bad with a double oven...but with just one...I feel like I am cooking for days...
Well, I am going to peek out on the "cold ones"....( shameless Twilight wink wink)...
Hopefully I will find that cord in the mean time. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
Peace!
