Christmas Wreath

So the year before last we decided we wanted new ornaments for our tree. So I had the great idea that I would make an ornament Christmas wreath. I bought all of the supplies and then they just sat there for like a year!

Well last weekend I finally decided I would finish that project and I have to say that I am happy about the out come.  Now I know if I had used Pinterest or YouTube I could have found instructions that told me how to do it step by step but I decided I would just wing it, just like I did with the birth of my first daughter, Montana. That however is a different story.

So gather all of my materials up and went to work. It took way longer than expected to complete the wreath but that is because I have a Coraline running around. From her grabbing the ornaments to trying to lick off the glitter my hands where full. However I didn't let that stop me! I was determined to finally finish another bright idea I had.

No it has it's home over my fire place and will be to focal point when the fire is not going. I am happy to finally check this off my to-do list!

Here are the photo's I was taking to show my progress of the project. At some point I either forgot or ended up distracted and forgot to take photo's. I am sure thought that you can work it out if you decide to follow these photo's as a guide for making your own.

So have any of you reading this made your own ornament wreath before?

Halloween at the Kelley's!

I know, I know . . . I am a week late sharing our Halloween things but HEY! better late than never, Right!?!?!?!

So I totally forgot to take photo's of the girls in their Halloween costumes and by girls I mean Montana! There was NOTHING for Coraline to wear, that is what happens when you are tiny and everyone else buys all of the tiny things up. We did find one of Montana's costumes, a pumpkin, and we were going to dress Coraline as my pumpkin but she HATED the outfit! I went as a scarecrow and I had to removed my make up like 20 minutes after heading out because Coraline hated it as well . . . bummer!

Well Montana went as Wonder Woman and loved it! She found this really neat shirt that had a cape attached!

We did carve pumpkins and the girls had a blast doing that. They got to do the cool part of removing the insides but left the hard part of carving them to the adults.

All in all we had a blast spending time together carving pumpkins and trick-or-treating! Coraline got a little bit of candy and Montana got a lot with a lot of other cool items. Cool items = bubble, cookies, chips and popcorn!!

If you celebrated Halloween how was yours? If you didn't celebrate Halloween what did you do instead?

Soup! It's all about a good ol' fashion soup!

So I mentioned that I was going to be #DiscoverCampbells and boy o boy and I am happy to give you all a review of the first two items we tried!

The first item was made and ate so fast that I didn't have any time to snap a photo. Just goes to show that it was good. Oh it was Campbell's Spaghettios MicrOs! I feed this to the youngest, Coraline, and she ate them up so fast it was unbelievable! Very easy for her to handle, chew and swallow. However there was a big mess upon her face, body and hands afterwards!

The next item to grace our taste buds was Campbell's slow kettle style Roasted Chicken Noodle Soup with Herbs and White Meat Chicken! I let both girls try this because it was a big container, I sneaked a few bites as well. I LOVED it! I thought it tasted so good and homemade! Coraline at every last bit of it and Montana ended up slurping down the broth when she was done! I really recommend you give this one a try if you want a nice hot soup for lunch on these cold days!

I was able to get some action shots of the girls enjoying their soup. I will be purchasing the soup again and in big quantities! The Spaghettios will be purchased for Montana to eat since Coraline makes a big mess.
