Shutterfly Holidayness

Well my husband and I are polar opposites! I love pictures, sending letters, decorating for the holiday but him, he would rather peel potatoes then send Christmas cards or add holiday decor to our mantel! Since I don't really care how much of a Grinch he is, I am going to use Shutterfly to make our custom holiday cards and gifts!

Shutterfly has an amazing collection of holiday cards to choose from and they have something for everyone at such a great price! Right now many are on sale!

One of my favorites is this card because of the many pictures you can put on it. More is better in my opinion and for the people who don't get to see Tillman often, having many pictures makes the card worth more!

Now if you can keep a secret, I will tell you what I am getting my parents for Christmas! They love to get things with Tillman on it, so I am making a calendar and mugs for them!

My favorite calendar is the bright and bold layout. Here is the link if you scroll to the bottom it will show you all the different backgrounds they have. The calendar is GREAT because you can add so many pictures and you can tell a story through the year! The best part is you can make it once and then buy two or three and give them as gifts and it wasn't much work at all! http://www.shutterfly.com/calendars/wall-calendars

The mugs are great for coffee drinkers like my family! They love to wake up with their grandsons happy face looking at them! You can put as many or as few pictures as you would like on the mug.

I can't wait to get our pictures done and gifts made! I love when my family opens gifts that are "handmade" and how much they love using them throughout the year. I get phone calls all the time with them telling me how much it made their morning using the mug!

You really should go check out Shutterfly and all the great things they have to offer!

Granny and Paw Paw visit

Well each year the state fair comes which means Granny and Paw Paw are here! Aunt Katie also came to visit which means going out to eat is in order! Tillman was excited to see everyone and showed off for them!



16 Months

Well my sweet boy is turing into a drama king! Boy did the tides turn! He cries about everything now. If he wants something he begs and whines for it! He used to be to calm and patient now he wants instant results and if he doesn't get it, a tantrum ensues! He loves to eat these days and really only wants to eat what we are having. He is starting to run not walk. He loves to play and always wants us to play with him. He will bring us something similar to so we can play with him. He really understand commands now and knows what we mean when we ask him to do something. Everyday is such an adventure with him!




Dino Boy





This halloween was so much fun! I can't wait till the next one when he will kinda know what to do. This year we spent it with our dear friends and their two sons. It was so much fun to see all the costume! I do have to say though it wasn't near as much fun as it was when I was nine or ten. Being an adult and trick or treating seems to have no point and I can see why parents hate this holiday! :) Enjoy the pictures!
