TOY REVIEW TUESDAY: join in...


It is getting close to Christmas and I can't post what I am buying...but maybe you can send me your great ideas.


I can say that one of the toys that I do have in the house are Lincoln Logs. Although looking on line at the prices, I am not sure I would pay that much for them. We have gotten all of ours from hand me downs and even out of my neighbors trash!!!


The other thing about Lincoln Logs is that when you have this many kids you have to have lots and lots of them to make it fun for all. So we have about three buckets of them.

MOVIE REVIEW MONDAY...



IRON WILL: many may think this movie isn't that great. It is by Disney and has good acting. Don't know why it isn't more popular. Besides the sad scene in the beginning, it is one of our family favorites. Watch first if you have sensitive young kids.



EMPERORS NEW GROOVE: we saw this in the theater and weren't too impressed. But, once we watched it at home it became an instant one liner...my big kids and husband still come out with one liners from this hysterical film!!!


GO HERE for other suggestions for family films.

THE LAST SUPPER...


We finished our last meal...


When I had my 12Th baby it was my first C section. After I got home we started getting meals everyday from my amazing friends and community. We got about 60 meals, yes, two months worth of food.


Not only did it help with not worrying about cooking, but it sure cut back on the grocery bills. So, we had more money to pay for the five different antibiotics I was on!!!


THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR THE PRAYERS, FOOD, AND SUPPORT DURING A DIFFICULT POSTPARTUM.


I am back to my old crazy self!!!

TOY REVIEW TUESDAY...


Hasbro 87625 Clone Wars Ultimate Lightsaber Kit

It is Christmas time and if Grandma is looking for something for your starwar lover...this is a fun toy. My son got it last year and it hasn't broke or hurt anyone yet...and he enjoys it. We paid about $35 for it at Target.
