DIY Star Ornaments

Have I mentioned that my two children have their own Christmas trees in their bedrooms? I do this because we make so many adorable ornaments and my tree in the living room is themed with red, gold, and silver and I will admit I am a snob and do not want the kiddie ornaments on it. Since we do create some wonderful ones I still like to have the fun moment of pulling them out each year and reminiscing over the memories of creating them so hence the need for both kids to have their own Christmas trees.

The last one we did for 2013 is a very simple Popsicle stick and string star ornament. I used super glue to glue the sticks in a star shaped... kids did not help with this process. (We tried Elmer's glue and had no success) After the glue was dry we had fun taking string and wrapping it every way. Simple, easy, fun, and looks great on the kids trees!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender. It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long. It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program.

Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

About this Bible: The Christian faith is founded upon an unchanging and unceasing confession: that “Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:11).

My Review: I have a full house often being a pastor and now that we have a bonus daughter with us she is the blessed one to receive this Bible. She has been desiring a bible to take notes in so when she saw margins she was pretty excited. Then with the leather she was more exci...
