My Review:

Going to be real and just say it.... I am disappointed this is a zondervan book. I may have had high expectations that somehow the author would incorporate the true meaning of Christmas- JESUS Birth but no mention of Jesus. The tiny stable near the Christmas tree in one picture made me get excited that Santa would learn about Jesus, but nope! Instead Santa is left looking for his Christmas gift. Maybe I need to write the story where Santa hears about Jesus instead??

The rhymes are cute and Mrs. Clause writes a nice hand written card and homemade gift if you need a couple more positives.

Thanks Zondervan for sending me this book for free in exchange for an honest review. I was not paid for this and all opinions expressed are 100% my own.

My Memory Suite Review and GIVEAWAY!

MY MEMORIES SUITE Review and giveaway! (#1 rated scrapbook software) The above is one of the scrap pages I have created. Super easy and super fast. I only took a couple minutes to create a 8 page photo book. I am still going to do some more with adding more embellishments! The below is one I created all from scratch and it only took me about 5 minutes! :) SO EASY! Here is a great video explaining more about the product. There are also tutorials available on youtube.com I am not sure if you are like me but I have spent hours online trying to upload photos to the web to place them into something I was trying to create.

The scrapbook software was very easy to download on my computer and did not take long to learn how to create. :) One feature t

Liquid Chalk spray! Chalk Idea #7

Last week we tried out the fizzing sidewalk chalk- click here to read that review. This week it is liquid chalk spray. They are a bit similar but yet different. Here is how to make it: Supplies: 1 tsp. washable tempura paint 1 cup of hot water 1/2 cup of cornstarch squirt of dishwashing liquid 1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store 1. Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2. Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid. Mix well. 3. Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4. Go have fun!!! This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week. I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general. I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry. I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes. :) Ready, Set, Go! Have some fun! She is my little model... she kept saying "take my picture mom." She is like her
