life with two sets of twins
It’s that time of year!! Hands down my gift guides are my most searched/shared blog posts to date. The 2018 guides have been shared on Pinterest over 100K times! It’s insane. So I’m coming atcha with some fresh ones for 2019. I will be adding more throughout the month of November so keep checking back.

It seems like the most popular “game” to play at Christmas parties is the White Elephant. If you don’t know what that is, let me explain. White Elephant means bring a wrapped gift of something funny or something you don’t want anymore laying around your house. It’s supposed to be kind of a “joke” gift. Usually the money limit is around $20-$35 OR everyone just grabs something from their house. I typically buy a gift because no one wants to get stuck with your old junk. Even though you buy a gift, you can still make it fun and silly! Here are some good ideas if you’re stuck on what to get.
One of my favorite Christmas traditions is picking out a new Christmas book every year. Our collection is really growing because I’ve been doing it since McKenzie and Kasey were born (2008!). If you do the Elf on the Shelf tradition it would be a fun idea to have the elf bring a Christmas book on the first night every year! Over the years you will begin to cherish all of your books and they can be passed down to your kids and grandchildren. I LOVE special little things that make the holidays even more meaningful. I thought I’d share our absolute favorite ones to read every year.
I’m lucky to call Courtney from Sprispals one of my friends! She always includes my kids in her product photo-shoots. I get the sweetest pictures like these to keep and cherish forever. The photos from her shoots are always some of my absolute favorites! Last month they got to participate in the winter 2018 shoot! I loved this wall as a backdrop so much! These pictures are definitely making their way on our Christmas cards this year!
I LOVE making gift guides. Seriously I could spend hours shopping for people! Christmas is a stressful time… going to the store ISN’T fun and choosing gifts for all your family members can be a pain. So here I am to save the day! I wanted to make a giant list of gift ideas for EVERYONE in your life! Dads, moms, kids of all ages and teachers! You are going to find it all here!
