One fact about my mom: she is a hardcore Pinterest pinner. She is also really good at choosing/making gifts for Christmas.

HOW TO: Add a few drops of food coloring inside an empty balloon. Put open end of balloon on faucet, SLOWLY turn water on. Lucky for us, we got a little snow and had a little cold. i took a pr of scissors to the frozen balloons to get the plastic off, and they were so cool. and a little messy. i recommend black gloves – won’t see the stains, won’t get food coloring on your hands! Iron on Wall Art. I have been meaning FOREVER to do something about the wall above my little guys crib. It looks like this: (SORRY--bad camera phone picture) What is so bad about this you might ask? Well NOTHING--if your name is LANDON--not COLTON. BUT if you are COLTON and this is YOUR bed--and you are now over 2 years old and your older brother LANDON is now 4 and hasn't occupied this room or this bed for 2 years--then THERE MIGHT BE A PROBLEM WITH THIS WALL!!
