Christmas Season is a time for giving. I love sharing little gifts with friends. There are a few friends that are always there for me when I need them most. I made this little gift to give to my friends that always give extra no matter what. I want them to know that I am thinking of them and I am grateful for everything they have done.

I first grabbed some Mint Chocolate Chip Gum. This flavor is my favorite I love anything with mint and chocolate. Yumm! I really love their watermelon flavor too.

For this project I designed, printed, and then cut these tags out with my silhouette. I cut off the part with the hole since I wasn’t going to be hanging the tag on anything. Then I used scissors to scrap off some of the black to really make it look like a chalkboard. Then I taped the tag onto two packs of gum and tied it together with red and green bakers twine.

This was really simple and cute. I am giving one to my friend Kimberly. She was really there when I needed her this past year. She is so encouraging and helps me so much! I am also giving one to my friend Kristen. She may be far away, but she is one of my best friends. She always listens when I call and understands my struggles.

Last but not least Annelyn. This girl hasn’t jus Last but not least Annelyn. This girl hasn’t just grown physically she has grown leaps and bounds in knowledge, social and emotional skills. She still has breakdowns now and then but has matured so much this year. On to Kindergarten!

Another one that needs a hair cut and he has been bugging me about it. 🤣 Didn’t really notice how long it was until I compared it to the other photo. Prestyn had a great year and has made some amazing friends. He can’t wait to start 2nd grade next year.

Carsyn’s last day of school vs first day of scho Carsyn’s last day of school vs first day of school. He desperately needs a hair cut but I love the messy look. He’s grown so much this year. Carsyn went through a rough time at school, losing his best friend in the classroom, and losing one of his favorite teachers but he has done amazing adjusting.

Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropical Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropicalplantsusa. I got it just after Valentine’s Day. I think it is time for a repot. I’m going to wait for the new leaf to harden up and then repot it. I have been super happy with the quality.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.
