TWO wells!! So exciting, and amazing! happy, happy, happy day! awesome! 🙂 That just ROCKS! Yes, and your heart is amazing! All the goodies you donated made my heart skip! They are SO CLOSE! i loved this session. great photos! my favorite is the one of the 2 girls with the pony … and the pony’s head is perfectly divided by shade & sunlight. i think it’s cool. what darling girls! 🙂 beautiful Cute! Those pics make me want to have another baby! I have two little girls now – and am now convinced I need a third! =) Gorgeous pics!!! Yes, he was in my class – it was fun to see his family…. Beautiful photos and a beautiful family! So pretty! Beautiful Awesome pics…dad has some strong genes! I love it! 🙂 great pictures meg :O) Beautiful girls! Ahhhhhhhhh, warm photos! Everyone snuggle with the sunshine while you can! I love to look at pictures with warmth and sandels especially when we are surrounded by snow! Beautiful pics, lovely family. Merry Christmas! our kids get a new ornament every year. sometimes i take them to pick them out…sometimes i don't. these are the specials for 2009. sean…he likes snow globes and the orange star is just one i got at target a few years ago…look how easy that is?! happy holidays to you and your family ? Um, yes. that should be a C. Christmas. 🙂 Today I feel peaceful and looking forward to the next 36 hours filled with family , friends, and fun!! Merry Vhristmas to you an yours! my mother in law did this for my husband when he was growing up. When we got married, he had a box of ornaments for our tree. It was so cute! We are doing this for our girls also, but since they are only 15 months & almost 3 years old, they don’t have that many in their little boxes! My birthday is December 18 so my mom always got me a Cmas ornament for my birthday…every year…and she still does. That’s 34 ornaments and counting, and I remember a lot of them (the fave is the strawberry shortcake one I got in kindergarten…it used to smell.) 🙂 next year, I am putting my tree by the fireplace! LOVE IT! great picture! I do the same thing with my girls for ornaments, they each have their own box. and some years there is meaning, some years, we just buy whatever they pick out. it’s so much fuN! I will be one sad mama on the day mine move out and take those ornament boxes. we try to buy ourselves one new one each year also so that we will have some left. I may just have to do this with my grandchildren one day to fill our tree….dont’ even want to think about it! My oldest turns 10 on christmas eve, feeling sentimental over here! Sometimes things are just easier done alone…totally understand. i love your honesty with “sometimes i do … sometimes i don’t”. that made me laugh. 🙂 the lesson being it doesn’t matter HOW it’s done, just that you’re doing it. thanks for sharing, meg! LOVE the ornament idea!!! might just have to be our craft today! and feeling peaceful?? ummmm, getting there! 🙂 I love the ornament idea! Over the weekend I made your mint chocolate brownies and can I just say how much I LOVE them!! 🙂 such a great tradition & you scored some super cuties too Your tree looks lovely. We have given our boys ornaments for several years. We also exchanged ornaments with their cousings. Each boy has his own tub. I love the idea too! seeing your lit tree and stockings hung with care makes me feel peaceful. what a pretty sight. peace out!! Love it! We do the same thing, although I like the idea of getting their ornaments together. This year, it was a soccer ball for my son and a cow for my daughter. Do you know how hard it is to find a non-comical cow? Our family ornament was a cruise ship – love cruises! what a beautiful tree! I love the idea of keeping everyone’s ornaments separate…I so need to do that. I have just been buying a family ornament lately and the miniature ornaments for our advent calendar (which is now full)…the tree looks great! We do the same ornament thing here at our house. And I’ve got the same kind of system going, so I completely understand yours! 🙂 Such a beautiful spot there in your home…although I know your whole house is lovely! I need to figure out the stocking thing. I do the same ornament thing with my kids. My mom did it for me and nothing made me happier than the day she handed over my box. I still have them all and they go on our tree along with all my kids’ ornaments. My oldest is only 5 and our tree is so full. I hate to think of that 1st box of 18 (or so) not being on our tree. It’s just like it’s right out of a magazine! Beautiful! I love it! Your tree looks beautiful. No tree at our house this year because of the move but I am enjoying all the trees in blogland though. I could find peace at your beautiful house. Mine has a half-dead Christmas tree in the living room. Barely any gifts wrapped yet. A falling-down shanty of a gingerbread house we tried to make tonight (it was a pre-made kit, and still i ruined it). I love your blog. It makes me happy every time I read it 🙂 I love your Christmas tree and fireplace pic – I need to find some PEACE stocking holders (ever since #3 I’ve been doubling up). Love it. Just like our family. I always remember being little and being so amazed at how MANY ornaments my parents had in their box. Now my daughter comments on how many I have… I love the ornaments that remind of you of something special the moment you pull them out. My parents did the same thing for my brothers & I growing up. It was so nice when my hubby and I got a tree of our own and I could decorate it with my ornaments that had a lot of meaning to them! Your kids will love it too 🙂 Not EVEN close….yet 🙂 But it will come…I’m just sure of it 🙂 We do that for our boys too. This year it turned into a whole fiasco because I got them in Disneyland a couple months ago and one broke! How do you replace that?!? (PTL for Ebay! :)) However I also get us a family ornament because my sister & I both got married in one year and my parents’ tree was NAKED and it made me sad and I never want that to happen to me! 🙂 Your tree is beautiful! My parents did this same thing for us when I was growing up. I moved out years ago, and I took my box of ornaments with me. And I love putting my own tree up every year because each ornament has such a wonderful memory to go along with it. And the toy bike with a hook was such a creative idea! So pretty Meg….very peaceful picture… What wonderful support we have in blogland! I feel peaceful too! I am at the airport, waiting to fly to Dallas with the in-laws… hubby trying to find me a starbucks just for fun… kids hainvg a blast rooting for their favorite team on the big screen (based soley on their uniform)… and I am getting to catch up on my fav blogs?! Peace! so pretty!!! and yes i could make that ornament…..hmmm…. ok i call a craft day with meg!!!!! 😉 I do that for my girls as well. It is such a fun tradition. I too don’t have any real system going on either… makes it less stressful that way : ) LOVE the picture of your tree… it looks like a postcard or like it is right out of a magazine. Another fun thing I did right out of high school & in college was ornament exchanges with my girlfriends… when your young & don’t have a lot to cover your tree (and your broke & can’t afford to buy all your friends real gifts) this is a GREAT way to accumulate them! i have a sean and we got him that same ornament this year (from kohls??). beautiful tree! I made felt ornaments several years ago for my oldest son when he moved out after high school… and for a few years after that I added to the collection. I should do more of that. Especially since there are grandkids growing oh-so-fast. And start some for my other son. He might get married… someday. LOL! Love it and your tree is just GORGEOUS!!!!!!!! I really am. There is so much chaos happening around me, and yet I feel a calm spirit about me. The Lord is allowing me to enjoy these moments, rather than stress about them. well…i did it! at first the kids were bummed to be torn away from the tv and computer. ————————————————————————————– popsicle stick christmas trees
***edited to add…we used green craft sticks that come pre-colored and i cut them with big scissors to get the different sizes. don't use good scissors for this…and watch out…the pieces fly everywhere! it's simple as can be. this was a hard craft.
thursday: sugar cookies (used this recipe from REAL SIMPLE) yes…i made the peppermint swirled cupcakes. gingerbread house. are you feeling crafty now? here is a collage of the arts and crafts i was inspired by and wishing i could make all of them. Wow. Looks like fun! Can you tell me what kind of dog that is? Found this post on Pinterest. I def thought it was cool to do with my kids, and then I read where you said “I only yelled twice”, now I’m in love! love the round pom pom ornaments, what did you use to attach them pom poms to the foam ball?? where did you get all of those buttons? 🙂 What a colorful collection of crafts! Brava! i love them all! …making such precious memories for your family. thanks for the great ideas 🙂 I love all of the crafts you did with your kids. I have 2 and I think next year they will be a the perfect ages to maybe try 1 or 2 of these crafts. Also I have been buying ornaments for the kids each year but love the idea of putting them in a special box to give to them later. I am gong to start that this year. Thanks for the great ideas. Oh, did we ever! We made homemade crayons for 2 year old cousin and we made clay pinch pots for the grandmas. We made clear glass swirly painted ornaments for the aunties and tomorrow is granola making for the uncles! And then there’s the baking…… Inspirational as usual! Love the crafts and will have to do some more this week. My little girls and I made the snowmen ornaments that look like smores for teacher gifts. it took about 3 hours but we made 13 ornaments that were all individual and cute. then after baking the clay they wrote their names and the year on the bottom. I am going to try the pom pom snowball ornaments for sure! Thanks! So fun! I can’t wait until my daughter is old enough to do that kind of stuff! One note about the sugar cookies…while you do need a lot of flour I reccommend putting the dough in the fridge for 30 or so minutes before you work with it and it makes the process a whole lot easier. Also, after I cut out the cookies and put them on the baking sheet I place the whole baking sheet in the fridge for a few minutes as it helps the cutouts to keep their shape and cook more even! you are such a great mom! Loved all of the crafts….. How did my dog get in your pictures??! What kind of dog do you have- she looks exactly like our goldendoodle, Sally! Love love love all of the beautiful crafts…and PIctures! Thanks for the inspiration Meg…my kiddos loved your ideas and since we have 2 1/2 weeks to fill…you helped a lot! Love all of your crafts, and how honest you are (you only yelled twice 🙂 ) I noticed that someone mentioned rolling the dough between wax paper, I have used saran wrap for my sugar cookie and gingerbread dough for years and I have never had a problem. Try it next time you have the energy to bake sugar cookies again. Have a Merry Christmas!! Meg, the art teacher at my school does those plastic cup “snowglobes” with the kids every year and they turn out adorably! There are usually some white packing peanuts involved in some of the kids’ too for snow in the bottom. Fun. What a fun week you guys had!! I’m thinking of maybe trying the pom pom ornaments sometime next week with my daughter, who’s not quite three. I just love all of your projects!!! You are now one of my daily stops…I am so glad we met…you bring a smile to my face everytime I visit!!! Your oldest daughter is so gorgeous!!! I will miss seeing this week but can’t wait until it works out. Merry, Merry Christmas!!!! You are such a good mom…truly!!! I love love love your craft week! The tree- adorable how they individualized them! I saw the pompom ornament linked to your blog and love to see that you guys made them. That looks like a sure thing! The gingerbread men..super duper cute. I love felt! Oh man I love your craft ideas and post. Hoping to be brave and try again. For now though I get a big FAIL stamp on my forehead for the glitter craft I did with my four year old yesterday. I think I managed to yell at her only 3 times before the final blow out and she was then put in a time out. Honestly, I always thought I would be awesome at craft time. Not so much. My 2 yr old just mastered scissors, so he looks forward to his brother’s nap every day when we can make crafts together. this is so fantastic! your kids will remember this forever. i really love how not all of your kids had to participate in all of the crafts too. what a magical way to celebrate the season. You are so great for posting this!! I haven’t done much this week at all (and now I have a laundry Kilimanjaro to show for it) since my youngest has been a little sick. These will definitely be on my list of things to prepare and do because I will have two big kids at home next week. Ahhh! 🙂 I am so hopeful that I can be this creative when my child gets to this stage. Thank you for your constant inspiration and ideas! ok meg…now you definately need to make candy sushi with your kids! It’s so much fun…(I’d advise only this project 🙂 It looks like craft week went great. I love the pom-pom ornament. My little one is still a too young for this, but just wait until she gets older… We will craft like crazy! I love crafting with my kids and I am so glad to see you making it look so fun. Love your crafts – so cute! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me where I can find those twinkly pom poms in time for Christmas Eve day…I can’t find them anywhere and NEED them to make those ornaments with my kids and neices and nephews! I need to stay the COOL auntie…LOL!!! nope. i won’t be crafting with the kids…but i will live vicariously thru you. Hi Megan! Megan, That is SO COOL that you did that with your kids. I love the pompom ornaments. Gonna try that with my kids. And the gingerbread house . . we got one of those ceramic molds from Pampered chef one year that makes all the house parts. It’s pretty cool although we don’t do it every year — big endeavor. We got a kit this year (thanks to grandma 🙂 It looks like Waffle wanted in on the Crafty Action 🙂 i think your thursday was better than mine. i did see your craig when we visited santa, though. i wanted to say hi and introduce myself, but i don’t think he would’ve liked it as much. 🙂 the crafts look excellent!!! and i love lauren’s hair…mine never stayed curled when it was long. hope you guys have a wonderful christmas break! We did our gingerbread house yesterday. I yelled too! Glad I’m not alone. My little one poked a hole in the roof!!! I was not happy, but then I remembered it wasn’t for me, right?! Anyway, he eventually got banned from the gingerbread decorating. He was only eating the candy…there’s always next year for him. The other two had fun. I love your blog. I found it a few weeks ago and cant stop looking at it! I love your ideas for this week, so thank you! Have a Merry Christmas! I think we will do craft week next week and take it right into christmas! thanks for inspiring! I know we are doing the cookies tomorrow! did you try to refrigerate your dough for a few hours? that seems to cut down on the stickiness factor for me! and refrigerate in between batches again too if need be! I love craft week! What great projects! It’s hard when the older kids get social lives and are not interested. I heard that your kids and mine are very similar ages (my sister told me – she is a huge fan, as am I now). I have a 15 year old boy, 13 year old girl, 10 year old girl and 5 year old girl. You did some really great crafts! I love the little gingerbread men. I made knitted trees with gold stars on top this year and sent them to all my family members. Next year I might make gingerbread men. oh i am completely and totally overwhelmed with the ideas! as if i weren’t already with my own projects!! (weren’t or wasn’t? not sure, but you know what i’m saying’.) overwelmed and in love!! especially the pompom ornament. adorable! Super fun! Im inspired to craft it up this week! Thank you. Ah, the gingerbread men are too cute! Moms are superwomen. You are a champ for baking all of that in ONE day! Girl you inspire me so! I love the pompom ornament. So going to do that one. I just love that you take the time and do fun stuff like this with your kids. You rock! Your oldest daughter is gor-ge-ous…wowza:) Now I’m off to check out that site. thanks for all the awesome ideas! i’ll be stealing some of these for next week, thankyouverymuch! What a completely fun week, thanks for sharing all the great crafts you did. Love all the different ages of your kids, so reminds me of my house. Thanks Meg…these crafts are like a ray of Christmas sunshine. Glad that Sean was so enthusiastic and Lauren joined in. Hope you have some really great coffee in the coming week. Meredith xo. I was crusing blogland today and came upon this awesome cookie and thought of you. http://makeitandloveit.blogspot.com/2009/12/playdough-cookies.html Oh we are doing this too!!! But I find it hard to take the first step… it is so much easier to read a story!!! But look at those little faces it is so worth it to make the effort!!! I just had to come out of Lurkerdom to let you know how much I enjoyed this post. I love that your kiddos leaped out of bed wanting to know what the day’s craft was. I’m wondering if I can get my teens to play with me next week as school will be out. I love your crafts…maybe my friend and I will do some of them next week with the kids…the picture of your oldest is wonderful…she’s beautiful. that looks like a blast! I’m going to do snowglobes tonight and will post pictures. there’s a “to-do” on martha stewart’s site. We are big crafties over here! We made some super easy yet time consuming (read: kept them busy for awhile!) wreaths similar to the ones I saw here: Ohhhh – you go girl. Good ideas! It looks like fun and I should of sent London down to join you 🙂 Maybe we can accomplish a few of those. LOVE this post. LOVE it. so fun!! looks about like our life lol yay for kids art !! I love the pom pom things and the popsicle stick trees. The trees are definitely pre-school-proof. Great ideas! And yes, we’ll be crafting. And baking. And decorating a pre-made gingerbread house from Ikea. 🙂 Oh my word! Thanks for linking to me!!! You want to know what is HILARIOUS- that post that Ashley Ann did about you- she showed your initial bead ornaments –that is where I got the idea for the wire + bead ornaments (I couldn’t find any small beads….) fun! thanks for sharing. and thanks for being real, too…that not all the kids were there..or happy…and that you yelled! makes me feel “normal” and willing to try it knowing it doesn’t have to go perfectly. thank you Meg…my kids thank you too I just bought the pom poms! Did I see this ornament on your blog???? Hmm…I love Annie’s pink pom poms…looks like a puff of cotton candy. I may scratch the cookie decorating on my craft a day next week, and add the sewing felt ginger bread men…less mess and calories-thanks for the idea! Ok easy craft………And let out some stress too! Thank you so much for this inspiring and honest post! I want to craft with my kids, but I’m afraid of stupid stuff, like the mess it will create. I hate that, because I want my kids to have these experiences and memories. I think I’ll bite the bullet and do a craft day next week. But I might yell more than twice. No mom-led crafting going on here. We’re packing to move in the middle of everything else that’s going on, so no Christmas decorations have been pulled out and the house is a chaotic mess with boxes everywhere. It’s quite a depressing sight! My seven year old son over the last two days has made assorted Christmas decorations and hung them on the wall in our entry way. Last night he told me it’s the hall of Christmas. Too cute and just what I needed! Ok first of all Lauren is so freakin gorgeous. Seriously. You are super amazing…. these crafts look like so much fun.. I’ll have to keep them in mind for next year!!!! I’m just hoping to get to sugar cookies… but I’m like you the icing is the killer… I’m hoping to maybe, make and bake and then do the icing a whole other day? Everything sounds like a good idea right now but doesn’t mean I can get it done… ha! We’re going to do some crafts next week. My kids are way younger than most of yours. Tip for gingerbread: Last year we had a gingerbread party and invited some friends. I made a little house for each kid and the 2 moms. I hot glued graham cracker to cardboard in the shape of a little house. Then just made some frosting and set out little bowls of candy and cereal and whaever to decorate them. They eat as they decorate and we use our houses for decorations and then after christmas set outside and watch the squirrels eat them. My son and I made the pom pom ornaments this week too 🙂 I’m so excited to do more crafts next week…you’ve given me some additional ideas! I love the button wreath and ribbon tree! Thanks for sharing this with us…you’re AWESOME! i found your blog last christmas and it makes me so happy to see all these fun festive things here again! you’re such a fun mum… i especially love the pom-pom ornaments. and i still wish i had even half of lauren’s cuteness 🙂 My girls finish school today, and we have been so busy with dance and school, that we have had no time for fun. They have 2 parties to attend this weekend (bdays), then the fun starts for us. I have big crafting/baking plans for next week-can’t wait! I want to do all of them with Kenzie, but I ‘m pretty sure we’re going to have to do most next year instead. 🙂 I love this. My kids are still pretty little-but I think they would love to give it a shot:). Loving the pom-pom ornament…so, so cute. Have I told you yet that you are my favorite? It’s true, you are. awesome crafts! thanks for the links! Whoa – you deserve some kind of award for all of that crafting! We did the beaded stars from Sara’s Art House this week, and are going to attempt the half-eaten felt gingerbread man ornaments. Doing the gingerbread house tomorrow…but it’s the pre-baked kind from Wal-Mart. The only way to go! 🙂 Reason #1000 I want to come live with the Duerksens. This looks like so much fun! I AM feeling crafty now!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are doing birdie ornaments that I found on Little Birdie Secrets here: Thank you so much Meg for taking the time to put this together for us. I have been thinking about your craft week all week and couldn’t wait to see what you did, so I could copy you! I see pom pom ornaments and snow man pops in my future! Have a great Christmas! I don’t have kids, so no, but I act like one (see my post today). Thank you, thank you! lots of links coming up.
i order from scrapbookpictures.com and i LOVE them. i ordered this CD last week. it is ROCKIN'. AND i want to make these…. remember the vintage pearl? it's all so pretty.
ok…enough links. i am working in the kitchen today. I am 3 chapters deep into Crazy Love (well, i was a few months ago). Can’t wait to finish…new years resolution?? Glad to hear you like it… That book looks great … can’t wait to read it!! what is a stick pen? a straight pin? Thank you for introducing me to Frances Chan Cute stuff! I love Annie’s dress. Makes me want another little girl!! 🙂 lol love that headband!! Just wanted to say, I found your blog today and i LOVE IT! the pictures, words, scrapbooking etc! my new fave! I always feel like I’m wearing a helmet, unless I actually wash and style my hair to give it a bit of fluffiness. 🙂 That mom hair, ugh! Although, you do not look like you have it. Francis Chan knows how to put things in perspecitve. He has a gift and I am glad he shares it so well. When I mentioned that Crazy Love will “step on your toes a little” my brother-in-law responded with “well, it ran over my whole body.” So true, especially the lukewarm chapter. Oh my gosh, I am so so happy to see that you loved Crazy Love! Francis Chan has a serious gift, and it really is such an incredible book! Good recommendation! lots and lots of pretty!!! you do not have mom hair. I just ordered that book this week. It’s supposed to be here today! I’m so excited. Well… I was thinking that your hair looked super cute! Does that mean that I have/like mom hair?! I sure hope not! Love CRAZY LOVE!! I’m reading it right now and it’s rocking my world. My minister always says that when you hear something and it makes you say ‘ouch’ then it was what you needed to hear. I said ‘ouch’ over and over and over again when I read Crazy Love. In fact, I am on the waiting list at the library to read it again. LOVED it! i can’t wait for the craft post(s)!!! i love your crafts. alex has a list for hobby lobby so we can do the seed bead ornament from last year. i love it. thank you for all the wonderful links! and i don’t think i’ve said how much i love love LOVE your vintage ornaments. such eye candy – dipped in a little bit of envy – that you have all of them! Luv the felt flower head band! Too cute.. I used Scrapbookpictures.com last year for my xmas photos after you mentioned that you used them and I loved them! I used a photo from summer and then used one of their frames to put around it to make it more Christmasy. I got a ton of compliments on them. Thanks for the tip!! Such colorful fun things you have going on in your house, and on your blog!! I enjoyed this post, as I do all of them! I am in the kitchen too! I have read Crazy Love twice now…once alone and than once with a small group and watched the video that went along with it. Life changing for sure….a true conviction of the heart. I will have to check out the book…I just ate a cupcake for breakfast, shhhh, don’t tell my kids! They had oatmeal, lol Kim you do not have mom hair Crazy love is one of my favorite books! It is such a life-changer! That headband is so not “mommish”. Very cute. Thanks for the book tip. I am trying to get out of my US trash phase and read a book or two. I have big, lofty goals. 🙂 the francis chan book is on my list of books to buy soon. my youth minister has gone on and on about it. The mom hair comment cracked me up. When I cut mine after our girl was born someone said to me, “Oh you are going for the mom cut now?!” I wanted to deck her. I didn’t…well I did in my head. great post. can’t wait to grab a cup of coffee and check out all the links! annie has a new outfit. i love it. "Now glory be to God!
