Materials List

*Canvas tote bag, blue
 *Iron-on letters, red
 * Assorted grosgrain ribbon, 1 yard pieces
 * 2 buttons
 * Scissors
 * Iron
 * Heat’nBond®
 * Fabric glue
 * Ruler

Step 1
Parents, follow directions on the iron-on letters package to personalize the bag.

Step 2
Follow the directions on Heat’nBond® tape and iron ribbon onto the bag as desired. We stacked narrow ribbon on top of wider ribbon for a coordinated look. Add ribbon to the top band of the bag.

Step 3
To make a flower, cut 3 pieces of ribbon 6-inches long. Make a closed loop and secure with glue. Stack 3 together to shape bow, securing with glue. Glue buttons to the center of the bow and glue bow to bag as shown.

Tip:
Start your ribbon in center back, bring around front and around to back. Secure ends with craft glue to keep from fraying. This gives you a great finished look

This looks like FUN to make with the kids. Teachers always need a something to put all those papers they need to grade in!

I got the email yesterday from another parent asking all parents to contribute whatever they can to an end of the year gift for our wonderful Kindergarten teacher.  Of course!  Then the question is what to get her.  In my head the first thing that pops up is stuff for the classroom that she needs for next year.  I emailed back what I could contribute and my ideas.  Plus I sent this link http://familyfun.go.com/arts-and-crafts/season/specialfeature/doca0503_teachergifts/ hoping to help with ideas.  I can’t believe it is the end of the year already.  I’m going to have a first grader on my hands soon, wow!  My kids are growing up so fast. 

The family fun article did help our class on picking a couple different ideas so if your stuck on what to get your teacher then click on link above.  I love this site by the way!  It has everything from crafts, recipes, and other ways to entertain my kids.

Oh my little girl would LOVE this!!! Too bad I’m sticking to NO MORE TOYS until I we get rid of the toys they don’t play with anymore.  The mean mom that I am! I have a box sitting in our living room ready for the kids to start putting toys in to take to salvation army but they don’t want to. Well no more toys until we fill up the box. One toy in 3 toys out is a rule I’m implementing after we do this purge. I love to shop so this might be harder on me then on them.

Now this is an EASY dessert dish!

RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
 Pound cake
 Ice cream of your choice
 Berries of your choice

1. Heat slices of pound cake on the hot (clean) grill grates for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until you have visible grill marks.

2. Top each slice with ice cream and 1/2 cup of fresh berries.

I bet I can use this on our indoor grill too.  We rarely have dessert in our house because my kids just don’t need that extra sugar at night.  If we do a dessert then it’s a bowl of fruit.  This recipe would be perfect.  My hips like dessert too so I will try it with only fruit, no ice cream for mom.

Recipe from: http://familyfun.go.com/

My son’s best friend had a birthday party yesterday at Pump It Up.  I was quite impressed.  We all gathered and watched a video about the rules then we all went in to this huge room with 3 gigantic inflatables.  Kids and parents went wild!  We played in one room for about 45 minutes and then ushered into another room with different inflatables.  Everyone was having fun.  I even took off my shoes and went down one slide.  The small kids were right there with the big kids having a blast.  After playing for another 45 minutes then we got to go into another room with pizza and ice cream cake.  The parents raved about how little they had to do because the Pump It Up staff took care of all the details, set-up, and the clean-up.  My son now wants to have his birthday party there.  I highly recommend it too every parent who just wants to have fun with the kids!

We are outgrowing our cute 900 sq ft house.  We have lived here for 5 yrs and 2 kids later.  My hubby and kids thought I was their personal maid and I got OVERWHELMED so I just gave up about 6 months ago!  I kind of went on cleaning strike.  Don’t get me wrong it wasn’t a pig pen but I wouldn’t want people to just stop by unannounced because I would be quite embarrassed.  I went into a depression and was not a fun person to be around.

Well guess what…things had to change!  If mommy isn’t happy then no one is happy!  

I implemented chore charts for everyone (yes hubby too) and it has helped A LOT!  I actually wake up to a clean house these days.  What I found that helped me the most is 15 minutes in each room!  Some rooms don’t even require that much.  Then at the end of the night I do a 15 minute clean up with kids.  Let me tell you my whole family is much happier these days.  Mommy is happy because her house is not in tornado land anymore!  Now I know CLEAN HOUSE=HAPPY MOM!  By the way I’m not talking eat off floor clean either.  With 2 young kids I have accepted the fact my house will have toys in every room and as long as I feel like I can live in it then its all GOOD!  I’m very proud of my family.

Give it try 15 minutes here and 15 minutes there and see how much you can get done.  Buy a timer too!
