Homemade Christmas

So this year we sat down with the kid's and talked about christmas. We decided (mostly Brad and I) that we are going to do a homemade christmas this year, As such we need to start now. Of course the kid's will still get Santa Toy's and maybe a toy or two from us but we are going to concentraite on helping the kid's make there gift's for friends and family.

So this is my list so far of Project we can make for the kid's or the kid's can make for each other.

1. CTR Towels

7. and finally a Sunday Box

Filled with Flannels, Games, Card's, Pretty much anything to keep the kid's busy sunday afternoons!

And of couse the kid's yearly Photobooks

I do these at www.artscow.com I love this site they send out coupon codes all the time for free stuff. So I'm lucky to have got 6 free book's so i can get all the kid's done plus our family reunion done for just shipping (which end's up being about $10 per book but it's still saving $15. I've alway's been happy with everything i've got from there and they have the funnest stuff to choose from.

If anyone and i mean anyone (even if i don't know you) has any other ideas, For sure let me know!!! I would love to hear any idea's!
