Homemade Holiday Crafts with "FAMILY FUN.com"

Great Christmas Ideas for Kids
More Christmas Ideas for Kids

I can not wait to begin our family craft nights to get ready for the holidays!

We are currently making the
Turkey Napkin Rings for our Thanksgiving celebration at Grandma and Poppa's house. And ,we are looking forward to making many of the Christmas Crafts!


Trick or Treat?

Grandma and Poppa came over last night for dinner and a little trick or treat fun. I made homemade chicken noodle soup for dinner. After our treats, I served homemade warm apple crisp with vanilla whipped cream. YUMMY!

The kiddos went to about 10 houses to show off their wears and collect the goods. We we in good company with a pirate and tinker bell! Tinker Bell kept taking off pieces of her costume as we traveled. Our Pirate was very gracious for his treats and collected more than one treat at each home because he was so polite. He was proud of the extra treats and I was proud of his graciousness! Tinker Bell, being 22 months old, didn't quite get the whole thing but I think she had fun. At least she had fun shedding parts of her costume and chasing the kitty that was following us.

We were blessed with a beautiful evening for the festivities. No winter or rain coats needed this year. I hope your families had a wonderful night.

I want a Dyson ... how about you?

Pink Dyson Vaccuum Giveaway by the Domestic Diva

Click on over to Domestic Diva for her pink Dyson give-a-way!

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness, Dyson has agreed to give away one of their Dyson Vacuum Cleaners in the Pink color. Dyson is notorious for being known as the vaccuum that never loses suction. I know this is true by using the Dyson Root 6 DC16 Handheld Vacuum Cleaner. Out of each PINK DYSON VACCUUM CLEANER that is sold, Dyson donates $40 to help Breast Cancer Research. Not only is this vaccuum for a great cause but it also does a great job of keeping your home clean.

Watch for this cool give-a-way party! Coming November 4th!
