Here are “just a preview” of some of my favorites!

To see the whole collection visit Christmas Card’s Collection.

The PICABOO’s Collection features over200 designs for Christmas, Hanukkah, party invitations, and a non- ‐denominational invites and greeting cards. From over two dozen designers from all over the world, you can choose from many card designs that are flat, folded, portrait and landscape designs. Flat cards can be
ordered on any of the five paper options while folded cards can be ordered on any of the three paper options.

Another feature of the new Collection is that customers can now create cards with as many photos as they want. (I am excited about that because I am looking to share pictures from the whole year not just season ones!)

Thanksgiving Party: Kid Friendly Recipe Thanksgiving Dessert

06:55 by Elizabeth_N · Leave a Comment

images Something is always so fun when it comes to cooking. OK, well sometimes it also means a mess to but that’s part of the fun. I am sure for the kiddos at least. This is a great dessert option, THANKSGIVING style, has minimal mess but something the kids can look forward to. This way if you have to bribe them, which I NEVER do, something will hold them over while you are cooking and they are NOT messing up the house. This is a great kid friendly recipe.

Pumpkin Pudding

1 Tablespoon Whipped Topping
2 Tablespoons Canned pumpkin Pie Filling
2 Tablespoons Marshmallow Fluff
Confectionate Sugar to Dust
and Brown Jimmies sprinkled on top (for fun)

Each child get their own bowl to mix individual servings!

Have Fun

Share below if you have any Thanksgiving Favorites that you enjoy!

Thanksgiving party: How to raise Thankful Kids

17:02 by Elizabeth_N · 2 Comments

Thanksgiving is around the corner. That means it is time to be thankful and all of that good stuff. right? I mean, I try to be thankful all of the time. There is just more focus on being thankful at this time of year. As a mom, I want to raise thankful kids.
Every year, Thanksgiving puts me in check to make sure I am not raising selfish hooligans but, humble grateful gentlemen (thankful kids). While they aren’t at the bright and shinning gentlemen yet, I do think they are doing pretty well. Maybe…..That means I am doing well too. But, Neither I, nor my boys, are perfect and there is always room to improve. Here are ideas I have gotten of the Internet and ideas we promote in our household. Hopefully, we all can raise angels with a thankful heart. Truly thankful kids.

Point out the Positive (We try really hard to dwell on what the boys have and NOT what they don’t)

Don’t buy your kids everything they want

Practice what you preach (ouch…..that’s a reality check for me. Am I thankful for what I have, or am I to busy thinking about what I don’t)

Thank you cards are a great lesson (every Christmas I mean to do this but I just crash after the holidays……maybe I will do better this year)

Give Your Child Responsibility (Aghhhh….Guilt from the not followed through chore chart)

Start a Turkey day diary (Great Idea)…Dedicate a notebook to things that you are thankful for. Fill it with drawings, pictures, and words that you are thankful for. Add to it year after year!
