Why parents hate me & Christmas Giveaway!
This week is all about school parties. My kids are in 8th, 6th, & 2nd....and they all still like to get goodie bags. So right now, my kitchen table is full of things that parents don't want their kids to get, but that kids LOVE...for example...Play-Doh. The parents who have carpet are not too fond of getting play-doh, I, for one like to play with it myself, even the smell is intoxicating (thank god its not toxic). All kids love Fun-Dip, as soon as they see that in the bag, it becomes total mayhem with them ripping the bags open. My daughter in middle school, made brownie bites and bagged them up with mini-candy canes for one of her classes. Unfortunately my boys will bag up about 5-6 goodie bags and then they loose interest, so it will be up to me to finish....but thats okay, because i get the leftovers!!

I love that you're putting together goodie bags with things in them that they really appreciate! (I love putting together bags for Hallowe'en:) When my nephew and niece come up for a visit (12 hr. plus drive), I always give them a large goodie bag each full of small toys and treats for the ride back...my sister says it keeps them quiet for the first 2 hrs, haha:D
Just wanted to say hello from Canada
I have been reading your blog, right to the end.
First and foremost I would like to say how sorry I am to hear that your mom passed away. My heart fells your pain and your dad's.
Second I was just at Karen't blog and you made her the sweetest little pink angel I have ever seen.
I'm wondering if you sell these or make them for pleasure. I just love her to pieces. I'm not crafty, well I do spray paint allot, but that's a different story.
Hugs Claudie
P.S. I would never hate you if my kids had a stash like that!!!
