Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop 53

December 8, 2013 by Carrie

On Thursday we got hit with Snowpacolypse 2013 and ended up with a thin sheet of ice with about 10 inches of snow on top.  Schools and business were shut down so we got to have some down time together as a family. 

Not too bad, right?

Then on Friday my son turned two.  My baby isn’t a baby anymore.  I think I might cry now!

All the events this week are really making me hope for a slower week this time around.  

We’ll see if that happens!

Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop

We have five lovely hosts at this party which means more exposure for you!  Your posts will show up on my blog as well as Jordan from Lily White. Designs, Amy From A Blossoming Life, Sara from Sneaky Spoons, and Katie from The Casual Craftlete.  

Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop

 Features From Last Week:

Five Heart Home linked up this super cute Christmas Printable.

Skinny Cookie Dough Dip?  Yes please!  So glad Lauree’s Crafty Creations linked this up!

Skinny Cookie Dough Dip

I thought this linkup was hilarious.  Do you have people on your list that are hard to shop for?   Excuse Our Mess had a GREAT idea.  Give those difficult people money soap.  The present is “wrapped” in soap making them work a little for being difficult.

Money Soap--a great and hilarious gift idea!
