Much Ado About Monday {No.136}

Hi y'all! 

We're back and ready to get going for the holiday season. I can't wait to share the mermaid tail blankets I made for my girls this week and Lydia and Jamie have some fun posts coming up as well. Make sure to check back with us over the next few weeks!


This weekend, we had so much fun at our neighborhood's annual frosty festival, though little miss E was a little bit afraid of Santa. Ella even won a little dance contest! The kiddos absolutely loved it and we feel lucky to have such great neighbors and friends to get into the Christmas spirit with.

And now onto the party...

Thanks for joining us this week for our Much Ado About Monday link party! We apologize for not posting a link party last week. Due to technical difficulties (i.e. a failed hard drive) we weren't able to host. We're glad to be back and are super excited about our features!

Much Ado About Monday {No. 135}

Happy Monday All!! 

This weekend was a whirlwind of activity as we celebrated my two oldest girls birthdays with a Cheerleading themed party. It was a blast! We got the whole house decorated in red and white, ate a ton of delicious food and then surprised the girls with two of our local high schools cheerleaders. The girls came and taught all of the kids a few cheers, chants, jumps and then helped them put on a performance for all the parents who were there. I didn't tell my girls that the cheerleaders were coming and they were over the moon excited. My 4 year old almost cried because she was so overwhelmed when they showed up. :) So, so much fun!!


Lydia, Jill and I must all have been super hungry this week because all of our featured posts are delicious sounding recipes made by you! Here are our top picks.

Jamie's Pick: Pumpkin Cream Cheese Wontons via Simply Stacie

Lydia's Pick: Cranberry Orange Scones via The Gold Lining Girl

Jill's Pick: Baked Apple Cheescake via Lou Lou Girls


And our most viewed post of the week is Twelve Thankful Crafts via The Crafty Blog Stalker

Much Ado About Monday {No. 134}

It's that time of the week again! Welcome back to Much Ado About Monday!

This weekend was a fun one. We spent most of the day today with my oldests Girl Scout troop taking a grocery store tour and learning about money to earn their Finance leaves. The grocery store we went to was incredibly accomodating taking us on a full tour of the store including the back room and freezer area. They even let the girls practice their cashier skills on one of the real tills. After the tour, the girls earned their Community helpers badge by shopping for and buying food to give a couple families in need a Thanksgiving dinner. Overall a really fun day for the girls!

Happy Monday Everybody!!

This week absolutely flew by and we are enjoying the cooler weather. Unfortunately, this weekend marked the end of our Summer camping and boating adventures, but spending some time at home cuddling up with my family on the weekends will be so nice. And now, we will be all rested and reenergized for when the weather warms up again and we move our camper back to it's Summer home.

This week Lydia showed off her AMAZING sewing skills by pattern testing the Airdrie Diaper Bag. She did such a fantastic job and I am sooo impressed with the final result. You go girl!!
