Happy Holidays Link Party Features

I just love co-hosting link parties and we had a staggering amount of bloggers link up for our Happy Holidays link party.  I hope you all found lots of great ideas to inspire you to help make your season a joyous one.

I managed to visit every single post and pin them all!  I didn't have time to comment on each post but I did try to comment on at least one post from every blogger.

We had so many great ideas linked up with us and it's always such a struggle to pick just a few to feature.


Be sure to stop by and see which posts my co-hosts will be featuring today.

I really liked the look of the farmhouse clothespin wreath and laughed so much reading A Grace Full Life's Unsponsored Clothespin Wreath Post.




I loved these Advent Acts of Kindness by Comfort Springs so much that I instituted them in our home this December.  We had to change a few to suit us but that's where the free blank templates come in real handy!



And speaking of advent ideas check out this adorable Rustic Christmas Advent Calendar by A Wonderful Thought.

This adorable DIY Buffalo Plaid Cozy Little Cottage Sign by Love My Little Cottage is adorable and with buffalo plaid being all the rage right now I had to feature it.

Make your own buffalo plaid Cozy Little Cottage Sign.

Just look at this beautiful Rustic Handmade Christmas Sign by The Interior Frugalista; I can see another craft project in my near future!

I was blown away by many of the submissions from Tikkido; like The Best Gingerbread House Recipe and Printable Template.  Wow! Her houses are A- Ma- Zing!

Make an amazing gingerbread house this holiday season with the BEST gingerbread house recipe and free printable templates.

I also could not wrap up this post without mentioning the 3 day travel log of Quebec from Debbee's Bees.  I try really hard not to feature any one blogger more than once in a round up but her re-cap of her trip really makes me want to Stroll Lower Quebec City During the Holidays like one of her posts is titled.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn

Would You Rather; Fall Edition

Image
I was looking for a quick and fun blog post when I stumbled upon this graphic on Pinterest.  I stopped by Life By Wyetha's blog and found so many great Would You Rather and printable game ideas for parties.  It's a really fun blog and you should definitely check it out (here!) .  With her permission, I'm using her adorable graphic for today's post.  As always, I've circled my answers and, of course, will go into even more detail below.   Other than a few football games when I was in high school, I've never even watched football so my obvious answer was movies!  I don't like scary movies though so you'll find me watching things like Runaway Bride, Stepmom, Love Story, Autumn in New York, St. Elmo's Fire, Good Will Hunting, etc.  While I love iced tea, I only drink hot tea when I'm sick.  I much prefer a mug of cocoa!  When my boys were younger we used to visit a corn maze (and a different one at that!) each fall.  We have so many near us.  They
