Every little girl's dream

My mom made this gorgeous doll house about 5 years ago and it has been enjoyed by many of the little girls in our family. What a masterpiece! There are so many amazing little details and she cross stitched the entire thing! Yes, that's right - the entire thing! It has now found a home in Clare's bedroom and she is so excited.

The Front

The Magic Inside

The Bedroom - The drawers open up!
The Ladies Room - the toilet seat goes up and down for when Ken comes over for a visit! :) Let's hope he remembers to put it back down!
Treasure in the Attic

(p.s. My mom is a crafting goddess!)

My Meme!

I have been tagged by Megan to do a meme! I was directed to go to my 6th photo folder on my computer and post the 6th photo from that folder and to share the memory of that photo.

This is a pic of Reilly & Greg in our woods in the fall. We love going for walks in the woods - we find it such a peaceful and serene place. :)

I will be back shortly to tag 5 others!

And the winner of the Etsy draw is....

We had such a great day yesterday! We all took Clare and Reilly to see the Barenaked Ladies concert. What a fun bunch of guys and what a great show! If you did not read my earlier rave about their amazing children's cd "Snacktime" you can check out the video for Reilly's favorite song below:

Check out “Pollywog In A Bog”:

You must buy their CD! It keeps everyone in the car happy with the music. :) And for one lucky winner, a free Snacktime CD! One of the songs on the CD talks about a missing number. The first to post the missing number wins the CD! As a hint, here is the list of the songs on the CD.

It has begun!

Christmas Party Season is here! We had our first family Christmas party last weekend. Although the drive home was pretty daunting being that we were hit with a major snowstorm while we were inside enjoying the turkey, the kids and adults all had so much fun. It was great seeing you all! xo

Here's a little pic of Clare and Reilly after dessert and some chocolate kisses. The Christmas lights weren't the only thing lit up! 'Tis the season!
