Father’s Day Treat and Printable

Father's Day Treats

I am always on the lookout for a great Father’s Day Printable to go with a yummy treat. At church for the past few years I have found myself in charge of creating or finding a father’s day gift for all the men in our congregation. It has to be fairly  inexpensive and easy to mass produce. Those are not the easiest set of criteria! Last year I put together these treat bags and T.J. from Sweet Sugar Blossoms created this printable at my request. She did such a great job, I love the tie in the background. These treat baggies totally met the requirements of 1) very inexpensive and 2) easy to assemble.

Back to School Teacher Printable

I love teachers! In another life I wanted to be a teacher, but then I had kids and I realized how hard a job it really is to teach! I admire my girls’ teachers and all that they manage to do. They are special people. Even at the beginning of a new school year I love them already even though I haven’t even had time to get to know them. People that choose to teach deserve all the love, appreciation and yummy treats and goodies we can come up with! So, to start the school year off right here is a back to school teacher printable.

Simple Baby Shower

 

Simple Baby Shower

If you are like me you love a good party, you love friends, you love food and you LOVE babies! If you are also like me you are often short on time. Yes, I like to try and CRAM too much into my days. But just because I am a “wee” bit busy does not mean that when my sweet friend is pregnant with her 4th that we don’t throw her a party! I know, I know, 4th baby, you are probably thinking this girl does not need a shower, she has all the baby stuff she needs! And, mostly you would be right. Anyone having a baby that is not number one or even number two most likely has a lot of baby stuff. But..babies are special!!! A friend having a baby needs to be celebrated regardless of whether or not mom needs more baby stuff! 

When you have a friend who doesn’t necessarily “need” a baby shower but you still want to celebrate with her, this simple baby shower idea is perfect. Having a baby is momentous and definitely deserves attention!! When this is the case our group of lady friends throws what we call a “Restaurant Shower”. This is how it goes:

Teacher Appreciation with Free Printable

 

Teacher Appreciation Gift

 I know that teacher appreciation week is over, but the end of the school year is fast approaching and I always like giving my girls’ teachers something really special to thank them for teaching my child all year long. This year we have been particularly lucky because not only did my girls get great teachers, but their teachers have loved them and taught them so much and taken special efforts to really make a difference in my kids lives. I love, love, love them for it and wanted to do something great to tell them how much their efforts have meant to me. The way to win this momma’s heart is to love her kids. These teachers this year have definitely won my heart! I want to thank them for wrapping my kids up with love and lots of learning.

This project is quick and easy… and with the free printable you can do it on the cheap. I came up with two different possibilities, one that cost me next to nothing, and one that I chose to be a little bit spendier on as I added a gift card. But how much you spend or don’t spend is totally up to you! Your imagination is the limit on this one!
