I got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about. You're welcome to join in and do something like this on your blog. Doesn't have to be on a Tuesday either. Just make sure you link up and that the post you link up is a Hey, It's Okay Post.
----------
To NOT be throwing away a going away party for the Elf on the Shelf that apparently a lot of people do. I'm going to send it off happily. Natalie will probably hug it goodbye. We allow touching.
To have loved the movie Saving Mr. Banks. Go see it! PL Travers, the author of Mary Poppins, was a very amusing (and stubborn) lady. I wonder what she would have thought had she ever seen Yo Gabba Gabba?
To feel like I'm NOT ready for Christmas tomorrow. But it's coming no matter what. Ack!
To be glad my kids don't wake up butt early to open presents. I mean, they DO but they know they have to wait in their rooms to an appropriate time of at least 8.
To be surprising Tommy with a Wii U. We had told him it was too expensive so he's going to be shocked.
To have made sugar cookies with buttercream frosting. From scratch. I rarely make things from scratch.
To have wanted to make no bake cookies but the stupid commissary was out of oats. And I was going to make puppy chow but they were also out of powdered sugar. Ugh! Note to self: get tons of powdered sugar early next year.
To love that Tom will be silly with the kids. He was being a box monster. Mind you, Tommy is all, "No thanks," and stays in his room, but Natalie loves it.

More than being a box monster - I'm digging the fact that he has on some cool pajama pants.

I have made the no bake cookies twice but they are too gooey. Wonder what I am doing wrong??
ReplyDeleteWe got a Wii U for the kids and gave it to them Friday (we couldnt wait),and we LOVE it.
ReplyDeleteI want to see Saving Mr. Banks! And buttercream from scratch? What could be better?
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love frosted sugar cookies.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
No Bake Cookies sound so good right now. Sometimes it's the simple things like box monsters that make the best memories. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
ReplyDeleteDepending on what flavor puppy chow you're making you can use dry brownie mix instead of powdered sugar :0)
ReplyDeletePeople throw a going away party for elf on a shelf? Interesting. I'm learning a lot about that little elf and it's traditions ha ha! We are hoping to do it next year.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun picture of Tom and Natalie!
I want to see the movie!! And yeah, I think she would have freaked at Yo Gabba Gabba!
ReplyDeleteAwesome that Tom will be silly with the kids. And okay that Tommy wants to stay away from that. Its the age.
