Roll the Dice!

I saw these cute items on this gals blog. She sells things on Etsy here. But the thing that especially caught my eye was the dice! This could be used as a possible craft at girls camp this year. I like what she put on the sides of the die....Serve Others, Email a friend, Pray Often, Listen the the Still Small Voice, Make time for FAMILY, Study Scriptures for 15 minutes.

Case Tutoritals

I have seen a few tutorials that I have liked in the past and had lost them (forgot to blog about them!). So I am adding them to my 'Where Did I See That?' blog so I can find them when I need them!!

This one is for a Cosmetic Bag. Here is the tutorial. Mountain Mom did a nice job.

Gourmet French Toast

This gal has loads of good looking recipes. I thought I would like to try this one and didn't want to loose her recipe. This is the recipe for her Gourmet French Toast. It's one of those recipes where you prepare the night before and then bake the next morning. Love it!

To Do with Baby Pictures

Chris shared this on her blog. This is such a caauuuute idea! My daughter takes these fabulous photos of her darling little girl (my little granddaughter of course!) and they would be so cute done up this way. They are printed on 12x12 pages. Check out her blog and email her about them. Chris isso wonderful at answering questions and helping!

Sunday Snack Bar

I love this idea for taking snacks to church or shopping in order to help keep kids occupied. This mother posted about it here. Isn't she smart?! I love the name she gave it "Sunday Snack Bar"!


Here is what she said -

Buy a craft container from walmart/joanns, etc ($1-3). You can also buy small plastic fishing tackle boxes from your local hardware store.
Fill each empty space with small finger foods for your child (age appropriate of course)

-Chocolate Chips
-Little Fishy Crackers
-Mini Marshmallows
-Raisins
-Fruit Snacks
-All kinds of cereal (cheerios, kix, lucky charms,)
-Peanuts
-Craisins
-Small Crackers

*This really helps my two year old quiet down in church. He loves the variety of snacks to choose from. Life saver...seriously!

*My container is actually "Child proof" so he can't get into it all by himself. It's also nice because it won't spill in his diaper bag. You just need to push in the button on the side while opening the container.

Family Rules

While catching up on my blogs, I found these 2 great ideas for family rules boards. My family is grown and gone, but perhaps you can use the ideas. Actually, I may make up a board with grandma house rules for when the family visits.....1. hug grandma 2. make cookies with grandma...you get the jest :o)

This clever gal shares how she made this one here.

Gal number 2 is super duper talented. Look at her post here!

Gift Card Give Away!

I have always felt the strong urge to be prepared for any type of emergency in life....whether it might be the loss of a job or Mother Nature giving us a beating, it just feels good to know that I will be able to feed my family in difficult situations.
