I know I've been a bit behind this week and showing more recipes then reviews and contests but like you I'm in full Christmas-Mom mode. I'm making sure the house is decorated, the gifts are not only getting purchased but getting wrapped, and lots of goodies to be made both food and craft wise! I have a lot done already but still so much to get done. I'll be back later today with a giveaway for you … [Read more...]

By 38 Comments
I can't believe what little time we have until Christmas is here. So much to do and such little time! Every Monday the boys and I go to my Dad's for dinner and my step-brother and his girlfriend generally join us up there as well. Last week we about fell over in awe when we saw that he managed to top last year's 14 foot tree with a SIXTEEN foot tree! Of course before I left my step mother … [Read more...]
Our Family Traditions This Holiday – Join in the Conversation with #InDelight for a Chance to win a $200 TargetGift Card!
By 1 Comment
I didn't grow up with traditions. Well, unless you count putting up a tree every year. I think it also results in the fact that I don't really remember any specific Christmas from my childhood. I don't want that for my boys. I want them to reflect back on their childhood and remember all the years we spent together as a family and remember the little things that made each year and moment stand … [Read more...]

Christmas is so healing for me. There is something about this time of year that makes me like a 4 year old child all over again. The lights on the houses, the exchanging of gifts, and the ornaments on the tree. Of course the holiday season kick starts with my stalking the local Hallmark Store. I collect the singing plush every year and while my mom buys it for me as one of my gifts I still can't … [Read more...]

By 721 Comments
I've been trying for this baby for years. Years. In that time I have been collecting some of my favorite products from some of my favorite companies. However, there were some products that I really wanted to be gender colored and had to wait and pray I could review or buy once I knew what I was having. Of course JJ Cole Collection had a collection of products that were on both their lists. I … [Read more...]

Gavin and Johnny have never really shared common interests when it came to toys. Until recently. Gavin discovered building blocks. This was something that Johnny has loved for years. They have spent hours upon hours playing together over something so simple and yet so fun. I was super excited when I was recently told about the new building blocks hitting the scene these days. They are called … [Read more...]
