This year Sue showed Bridgette, Whitney, Chey and I how to make a great gift out of blocks of wood. We sanded and painted the wood, then mod-podged the pictures on, and decorated them with ribbon. It was a lot of fun, and I loved the idea so much that I decided to make a set for all my sisters and my mom. I wish I had taken pictures of each set, some turned out cuter than others! It was easy, cheap, and a lot of fun! Plus I think they are pretty cute and am going to be making myself some soon!

Christmas Time
It seems like Christmas is taking forever to get here this year! Is it just me? It might be because I started (and practically finished) my shopping early November, so I have had all this time to sit and get excited to give Dan and other family members their gifts. It might also be that with the exception of today we have had virtually no snow. Snow is a necessary evil at Christmas time. Without it it just doesn't feel right. Another reason may be that I have had Christmas decor up around my house since before Thanksgiving (don't judge me). But whatever the reason may be, these four days better pass quickly!
