It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.

Normally around Thanksgiving I would have had a session booked for Christmas pictures. But for some reason it felt like time flew and bam, Christmas will be here in 18 days! So, today I decided to just take a nice picture of my boys in front of one of our Christmas trees. I remember seeing one of Wifessionals & Hooah and Hiccups Instagram posts about Walgreens app and how they made their Christmas cards within 5 minutes. Too myself, I thought no way. But those ladies were right And thank god they were, because I really didn't want to have to go out in the cold to the store to stand there and print picture cards. So here's was I did.. I downloaded the app to my iPad.
On the left hand side I clicked on the picture icon.
It brought me here and it gave a lot of different cards to choose from. 
I chose this card. Very simple instructions.
And Voila! They're done and ready for pickup within the hour!


Very, very, easy and simple to do. Why go out in the cold and stand there when you can just do it in the comfort of your own home!

Meet Sullivan.

This isn't your typical Elf on the Shelf. The normal Elf on the Shelf is about $30. I originally was going to splurge on it but then I was a little worried my kids wouldn't be so much into it. So, my sister in law decided to start making her own. She made one for her son last year & knowing I was wanting one for the boys she decided to make one for them! 

Night 1. Meet Sullivan.
The boys decided on the name Sullivan because of Sully in Monsters Inc. I thought it was adorable, plus I love the name. They found Sullivan in the morning hanging from our garland in our dining room.

Night 2.
They found Sullivan just hanging around in Mommys stocking.

Night 3.
The boys found Sullivan sitting on our bookshelf reading one of Cameron's book. Smart little elf.

Since I'm caught up, every day I will post where the boys found Sullivan and what he was up too. So far they like that Sullivan is here to watch over them for Santa.

So I want to know, do you have an elf hanging around at your house?  If you what is your Elf's name and what has he or she been up too? :)
