Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from the Little Chicks Daycare!

A Little Chicks Apron!

Look at the adorable Little Chicks apron I found at Pottery Barn...problem is, it only comes in a size small...as in a child's size small!  Definitely won't fit...but isn't it cute?

Gingerbread Town

The Little Chicks are ready to begin building....

The icing is very sticky but it does the job!  Want the recipe?  1 lb powdered sugar, 1 tsp. cream of tarter & 3 egg whites, blend and begin frosting!  If it dries out, just add a few drops of water...

Ella put an arch on her house...future architect? 

this was such a fun activity! 

 They turned out so cute!

Kate's house 

Didn't they turn out adorable??!!! 

More fun Christmas activities to come so come on back!

Photos by Emilie

Our giveaway today is a free session fee for the Photo By Emilie Santa Event on either December 3rd or 4th.  I met Emilie at the Oh Sweet Sadie Show.  Her booth featured products to improve your own photographs, in addition she will be promoting her Photography Workshops.  Check out her online photography tips.  If you have any interest in improving your photography skills her photography workshop is not to be missed.

I just signed up for Emilie's annual Santa Event on Friday or Saturday, December 3rd and 4th.  One thing I love about Emilie's Santa photos is not only does she capture a traditional image but she ALSO captures all the candid images. I love the images she captures of the kids talking to Santa and hugging Santa.  These candid images are the reason you should choose Emilie to take your Santa pictures this year.  Why is it that a crying baby sitting on Santa lap is so cute?  Emilie offers an additional option for those children who are terrified of Santa.  She has a magic prop - a Santa Glove. Be sure to check out some darling ways parents use the Santa glove on the the video below. The video showcases of some of Emilie's Santa images from last year.

Bugs!

We've had a lot of rain lately, and when it rains, the bugs come out of hiding...so we grabbed our bug catchers and went exploring!
