Mommy Confession #1

I decided to name this post confession #1, because I have a feeling that this will turn into a regular thing here on the blog.  I probably have several confessions I need to own up to a day, but today is a doozy worth blogging about! Today was a Pre-school day for the Piggies.  We […]

What I love the most are Calendars!  My favorite thing to do in December is to pick out the new calendar that goes on our refrigerator.  One calendar is […]

Chalkboard Gifts for Teachers

Calendars
