December's favorite things are a bit boring compared to last month... Hint...BABY! If you missed it, be sure to check it out here. My favorite things this month are all things I love to use while baking - and what busier baking time is there than Christmas?!

I love looking for new treats to make as well as making the good old family recipes! … [Read more...]
Countdown to Christmas
I love the season of Advent...looking forward with hope and being reminded that the Savior of the world came humbly. I have always loved Christmastime - the lights, the snow, the "magic" of it all! Getting to work with kids during this time of year is the best because I get to remind them of the true meaning of the season as well as do some really fun activities with them! I created a "Countdown to Christmas" to help us focus on celebrating the season! … [Read more...]

When I got a smart phone, I started keeping things stored in apps as well. When it comes to trips and special occasions, I tend to take too many photos as I just want to remember all the things. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in trying to remember the event that I … [Read more...]

I LOVE this time of year! I don't really love the getting really cold part, but I love the magic of the holiday season. I love Christmas, but I hate it when Thanksgiving gets the short end of the stick! We have to focus on what we are thankful for, otherwise we hurdle into the Christmas season with "want-want-want" on our brains. End rant... … [Read more...]
