Craziest Christmas EVER!

How was your Christmas???
Ours turned out to be merry/ busy/ crazy & oh so fun!!!! We received our families yesterday night for an evening of fun & laughter! Seriously a Christmas to remember! Livia had sooooo much fun...& got totally spoiled! I was so busy running around the house, didn't took as many pictures as I would have liked...but here are a few!

Amazing chocolate bark...I'll definitely be making this recipe every year from now on! This is actually my only "food" picture...can't believe I was too busy to even take a picture of the feast...oh well!

I have NEVER seen so many gifts!!!

This particular gift was bigger than Livia...

...and she seems to be hoping it's for her!

My boyfriend gave me the coolest gift! A Wacom drawing tablet! I'll have to make some new designs for my CUTIFULmemories shop!

This little lady stayed up till' 11pm!!!

The morning after...it almost looks like we just moved in...empty boxes EVERYWHERE!

She's loving the play kitchen we got her...and all the felt food I made for her! Yay!

Didn't know you could make popcorn in a sink!

Gotta go back to cleaning up all the mess!
Enjoy the rest of the Holidays!
Talk to you soon!

30 days left...

30 days left before Christmas, that's right!

Yesterday, we went shopping for some outdoor Christmas decorations & I have to admit, I'm slowly starting to feel the Christmas spirit! :)

Our pretty front door!

It's a first for us, we've never had outdoor decorations before...in fact, last year, we had our very 1st Christmas tree...I guess that's because we felt that, now that we have a little one, we have to start building our own Christmas traditions & memories!

I've also discussed Livia's gift with my boyfriend & we decided to get her this cute mini-kitchen from Ikea.

Actually, I have TONS of pins on my Pinterest boards for the cutest DIY mini-kitchens...but who am I kidding...I'll simply never have time to create one before Christmas...we are simply too busy around here!

This one from  The Farmer's Nest blog is made out of old nightstands 

This one from  MC Baby Bump 3 blog is made out of an old TV unit

And here's another converted TV unit from Fresh Cut Flours blog

I even got my boyfriend's approval to rearrange our living room to allow some space for:
A) a Christmas tree (last year, Livia was so little, she didn't have as much toys & stuff scattered around our living room so it was easier to squeeze in a Christmas tree...but now, the living room was feeling so cramped, I really don't know where we would have put a tree if we hadn't rearrange our living space!)
B) Livia's future mini-kitchen (because as you know, we still have an unfinished basement, which you've probably hear me complain about here & there on the blog....but hey, that's another story!)

 Soooo, I was so excited about the mini-kitchen, I started browsing the web for the cutest play food...because no mini-kitchen is complete without play food! Thought I could share my amazing finds with you because there are so many! Here we go:

Felt pasta! What a cute idea, I'll definitely need to make some. via A Happy Nest blog (she also has other felt food tutorials such as this felt cookie set )

This list could really go on forever...but I've got to get going! ;)
Hoping it gave you cool ideas for Christmas gifts!

Have a good one guys!
Take care!
