But the party was so much fun and the desserts turned out pretty great.<br /><br />This year even though funds are extra tight I'm trying really hard to focus my little guy on the real reason for Christmas and to make very light of the gift part of it. So far he's enjoying Christmas SOOO much and not just getting gifts. It's been a really great Christmas season!rivulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352395562904461909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375475720350356941.post-48266145664997860032014-12-14T09:52:01.989-05:002014-12-14T09:52:01.989-05:00Your desserts look absolutely amazing!

We only buy for the kids, and we each have the two, so she's my partner in crime in keeping things under control & affordable. Our biggest goal for the holidays is to spend time together, & I love that you make that your priority with your family.

M Ripples commented on a previous post that her step-dad took her kids on a dollar store shopping for their birthdays and it gave me the idea for the gift game. Some of the gifts the kids thought were really cool too.rivulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352395562904461909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375475720350356941.post-7040571614988432852014-12-14T09:34:31.636-05:002014-12-14T09:34:31.636-05:00ah haha, I feel like I gained weight just looking ...ah haha, I feel like I gained weight just looking at them too.<br />thank-yourivulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352395562904461909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375475720350356941.post-52168256488752814022014-12-14T07:32:39.311-05:002014-12-14T07:32:39.311-05:00!!
