Featured Client - Cookie Exchange Party

I'm in the middle of planning my
cookie exchange party for this year..

I was given a boost of enthusiasm and creativity
when a recent client of mine showed me how
she used my cookie exchange party printables
for her own event!

Have a look..she did a lovely job! 

Thanks for sharing!

I just got back from retreat with my husband's youth group kids. Amazing!!

I'll share more about that later. I had a pretty awesome experience that I want to share..

even if it is a bit "religious"...if you like real/personal/raw blog material..

I'll give it to you. Sharing tomorrow.

My Christmas Treat Bag Tag Collection

Super excited to share these Printable Christmas Treat Bag Tags!
We took the photos below real quick after just finishing up doing
a 5 minute Christmas Card session in our Family Room....

I had put our $3 ikea garage sale chair in front of the half decorated tree..

and snapped some photos while my hubby made funny faces. :)
I can't wait to share the christmas card photos. SO CUTE.


This is one of my favorites packaged up..
I filled up the Treat Bag with the
Santa Graphic with cute little Peep Reindeer!
(I use snack size ziploc bags..some of you have asked in the past)
We are going to be giving these out to different people this Christmas Season...
Packing these into boxes going out to family far away..
and as sweet surprises for our neighbors!
I think they would make cute touches for class parties or favors at your Christmas Party!
Fill them with the Christmas Peeps or something home made. :)

My Cookie Exchange Party Invites - Printables

I was working up the invite for

this year's Cookie Exchange Party..

and was having too much fun...

so I made a few versions to put up in my shop! 

Additional details to go with this invite will be listed soon.

As soon as I get a chance to make them up......

My day was busy keeping an eye on sophia(3) playing with her sister sienna(1) who was now, as I was told, a puppy. She was taking her to the vet...haha. Poor sienna.. she is always either being put in "timeout" by mommy sophia...being told to go fetch as sophie throws toys across the room...or being the patient at the doctor's office. haha the funny thing is...she LOVES it. yay for siblings..even when they are crazy. For the most part though sophie is sweet to her sister.. she pretends to be the mommy and talks to her like I do, all lovey. :)
