Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
My family & I stick together like glue

Handprint Rudolph






This is a handprint Rudolph. I traced Hailey's hand on brown construction paper, cut it out, used black marker for the hooves, a red pom pom for nose, green pipe cleaner for antlers, googly eyes, and a jingle bell attached to a brown ribbon.

Paper Cup Angel





This is a paper cup angel Hailey made. I saw a similiar version of it on a different blog site. I used a paper cup, muffin cups, construction paper and a gold pipe cleaner (for Halo).

Spam Musubi & Onigiri






So today I decided to make Spam Musubi and Onigiri (Japanese Rice balls stuffed with your
favorite meat). It was my first time making these two meals, and they actually came out pretty
good! I used white rice, Spam, Norimaki (Seaweed) and soy sauce!

PB & J "sushi" rolls




Hailey loves Asian food and loves to use her pink chopsticks from Tokyo any chance she can.
I added a little Asian flair to a simple PB & J sandwich by making it look like sushi rolls. It is really easy, just get 2 slices of white bread, cut off the crust. Then using a rolling pin flatten the bread, add a thin layer of PB & J, roll it up then cut it up into 4 parts.

Today we also went to the Holiday Light Festival in LA. We went last year and it is one of our new traditions. Hailey loves the lights and seeing her happy makes me happy. We walked about a mile surrounded by beautiful xmas lights, sipping hot chocolate and eating churros. We had fun on our ice skating adventure and at the Holiday Light Festival! Good Night ZzZ

Hailey's Signature

Hailey loves to write & draw all day...she's been practicing her "signature", this is what she came up with, too cute.

Today, we went ice skating at LA Live! It was mine & Hailey's first time, it was a little scary at first, but fun! My poor princess had a little trouble, her little skinny chicken legs were barely holding her up, but she still had fun and wants to go back.
