Last Minute Gift Idea

Can you believe Christmas is only 6 days away?!?! I feel like Tyler and I just put up the tree! This is such a busy time of year for both my work and social life! But I love it! I am about done wrapping gifts for our family members. But it dawned on me that I left a few people out! Our neighbors, the mail man, my youth students, and a couple long distant cousins. So I had this simple and cheap Christmas gift idea! I used holiday to-go mugs and filled it with candy and packets of hot chocolate! I put a cute bow on top and gift tag and I was done! I think they turned out pretty great! Here are some pics! Let me know your last minute Christmas gift ideas! Or if you decided to give mine a try!

What's Inside ....

3 packets of Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate!


Pieces of Godiva chocolates 


      I put these in some of the cups instead of the candy


Gift tags and bows are from Target 




Then I decided to add a little bag of Marshmallows to go with the Hot Chocolate! 
You can get these holiday bags at Dollar Tree.

DIY Christmas Cards

If you love to be creative and festive like me, then you will love making your very own Christmas cards! A nice card can be pretty expensive, so this year I decided to "DIY" my cards! I have always loved making personal birthday cards, so this year I thought, why not Christmas too?! I already had everything I needed to create the cards so the only thing that costed me was the stamps to mail them! Which is totally worth it to put a smile on my family's face with a little surprise in the mail! Here are some tips and pics of my DIY 2019 Christmas cards!  I used Christmas themed scrapbook paper and folded it over to make it thicker, like a card. I also added these cute scrapbook stickers.  They add so much cuteness to the cards!!  Nice stickers can be be pretty pricy at the craft stores, but my Grandma is so sweet and picks me up some stickers all year round when she goes to Goodwill and gets them for .99 for a brand new pack!

What's To Come

I'm really looking forward of what's to come after all of this Corona-Crazy comes to an end! Although I'm LOVING working from home! I'm excited to for our first church gathering and our first night back at high school youth group! I can't wait for all the smiles, hugs, and laughs that will be shared! I really believe and pray that people will appreciate each other and the little things in life more than we used to!  I'm also really looking forward to our gender reveal party Tyler and I are going to host at our house next month! And we FINALLY get to find out if Baby Burton is a boy or girl! I feel like it's a girl, Tyler is convinced it's a boy! lol I don't even care at this point! I just want to know!!!! So I've been keeping my focus on the great things to come, instead of the negatives... which has really helped me during this time of being alone. I've also realized I'm more of a homebody/ introvert than I thought! lol Of course soc...
