This looks Cool!

I wish I had more time to look into it but this looks like a good deal and will be getting started after Christmas! Hot Book is a photo book and if I could score one for free with free shipping I would know some happy grandparents!

Update: I did this easily with my facebook pictures. It really only took 30 minutes and was free. It made me want to put more pictures on facebook so I can do another one next month.

Easy Couponing Deal

Go HERE to find out how to score 10 $1 off any coke product coupons. There are no commitments and free shipping so why not try it.

Never give out phone numbers and if you don't want spam it doesn't hurt to give a fake email adress as long as you remember what it is. I make things up so I don't give out too much information.

Tip: Wait for a store to put coke 2 liters on sale for $1 each and get 10 of them free with these coupons! Products include Coca-Cola® Diet Coke® Sprite® Barq's® FANTA® FRESCA®. If you do albertsons doublers this could score a great deal around superbowl time when 12 packs are usually $2.

Here Comes Santa!

Tonight we had the church Christmas Program. Braxton has been talking about seeing Santa for the last month. He remembered seeing Santa last year. "We sing jingle bells and Santa comes in and says "sing it one more time." All day long he was looking forward to seeing Santa. "Mom when Santa is at the church where will the Reindeer be?" He even asked Santa about it. He told santa that he wanted a dinosaur castle for christmas.



There are no pictures of Brooke with Santa because the minute I tried to put her on his lap she screamed her head off. She did get a bag of candy though that she had a death grip on the rest of the night.

Preschool

I am stealing this picture from Rachel (you are so good at having your camera with you) because I wanted to blog about how much Braxton is loving going to Preschool this year. We were a month late getting started because I was really dragging my feet about him going. I didn't want to commit to being out the door by 7:45 in the morning and I didn't want my kids to be away from me any more than they had to (I work afternoons.) But due to my extreme Monday morning shopping I decided I would let Braxton go to Preschool instead of being drug around Albertsons. He is loving it. He loves Mrs. Romans- (he caught on quick with the name!) and loves spending more time with Spence. He comes home and loves to tell me about everything that happened that day. He has definitely improved on his ability to trace letters and color in the lines. Two things he never likes to practice doing for mom. We still have a long way to go though!
This is a picture of the gingerbread house he made the other night. He had fun doing it "all by myself." We have it on the counter and he and Brooke sit and "look at it" daily.
"No touching Brooko!"

Return to Couponing

After two dead weeks of no sales I am happy to report that I finally found killer deals again today. I was able to score 12 Progresso cans(all chicken noodle soup of course)for $2.50. The good news is we did this three times! This was at Albertsons and then I headed to Rite Aid to get 6 bottles of ALL laundry detergent and a gallon of milk for $9. YEAH for sales!

Rockin Around The Tree

The Mistletoe Kiss



We put up our tree a week ago and I am just now posting the pictures. I would like everyone to pay special attention to the nice row of candy canes Braxton put up. It was perfect until they went to sleep and then mom had to sneak in and rearrange everything. The kids didn't notice.

The Elk Horns

Jeff killed a big elk this year and decided to get the horns mounted. I was not so thrilled about it but told him he could do what he wanted as long as they weren't put up in the house. I came home today to find them up in Braxton's room. Braxton loves them and I guess as long as dad will start putting Braxton to sleep every night (as seen in this picture) I love them too.

Christmas Shopping

I recieved three Christmas packages that were ordered on Cyber Monday today! I have all of my shopping done except for my parents. They are the hard ones. I have never been this on top of things before. Now it requires dilligence to stick to the budget and not go out and by more than I (my kids) need. This year is fun with both of them so excited about it. We put up the tree on Sunday. Tis the Season...
