Somewhere in between the glitter and publishing this free eBook, I think I lost my mind…
Not, like, in creative, carefree, I’m-going-to-take-the-world-by-storm way… but the SHE HAS REALLY LOST HER MIND way…
You see, I decided as I was putting pink and teal and lime green ornaments on our Muppet Tree,
That the world of Christmas was filled with all things girlie… lights and bows and polk-dots and shimmery goodness…
And the boys? They’re just left to deal with the Christmas Crazies that inhabit our bodies during the month of December.
And I felt so bad for them… So flippin’ bad…
So bad, indeed that I decided to spruce up this old, tired Christmas wreath…
And let me tell you what’s really priceless…
Watching your too-cool-for-school thirteen year old laugh until he cries…
And if my being certifiably nuts is what it takes to see this smile…
Then watch out, my bleeps…
This is just the beginning…
P.S. The crazy polk-dotted tie fabric is from Amy Butler… it’s called Sunspots in Mint.
Linkin up…
Inspired By Charm Christmas Party
LOVE. IT. And why didn’t I know you had a Muppet tree? {climbing out from under a rock} I had a Kermit the Frog room when I was little!!!
Ha! I LOVE the Muppets!!! Have you seen OK Go’s rendition of the theme song??? It’s fantastic!
Thanks, girl… I love making my boys laugh!

Thank you, Cassie! I sneaked the polka-dots in anyway! Oh, you should have seen us… Morgan was doubled over! It was the best…
Love love love your creative mind!
Oh, my crazy mind!!! But gosh, we had so much fun with this… I’ll never forget that day!
Well, as much as I love your muppet tree, (What is it about the muppets that seems so Christmassy?) The tie on the wreath is pretty hilarious! But it works!
We laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed…
It’s good for the soul…
VERY cute!
Thank you, Jane!!!
So is there something wrong with me or have I lost touch with what 13 year old boys think (hope not cuz mine is 13!) but I like that tie. I think it’s pretty cool.

I mean it! Morgan was so funny when he saw it! I thought I was going to have to get him a paper bag to keep him from hyperventilating!
Thanks, Beth!
You are nuts but that’s what I love about you. The tie is perfect!
Oh, and I’ve only scratched the surface!
Thank you so much, Ann! It’s so nice to be appreciated for my craziness…
