I hope you enjoy your first coloring sheet of the season.  Read the verse with you child and then let them color it.  You can take a piece of ribbon and hang it on the wall and as they color the sheets you can attach them to the ribbon.

Starting December 1st I will post a coloring page with a bible verse for you to print out and your child to color.  Read the verse to your child even if they are not old enough to understand, you will see they enjoy the simple fact of being read too then let them color it.   I intend to have the page up by 8 am each morning because I would not want to disappoint anyone.  If you have any questions or suggestions please let me know and I hope you enjoy the extra quality time with your child while you teach them the importance of the Christmas season. 

One day closer to Thanksgiving is one day closer to my family coming for Christmas. I wish we could just skip Thanksgiving and go straight to Christmas. I can’t wait to get out all of the Christmas decorations. The day after Thanksgiving is the day I spend putting up the tree and getting ready for Santa.

Say hello to our first Thanksgiving craft of the season. This craft is adorable.  You make it with your child so they will need your helping hand for this one.  Let them trace your hand and their hand also.  It really shows how small they are compared to you.  Also is there are a few of you in the family you could use a different hand for each layer of feather. Like Mom, Dad, brother and sister. Give this one a try and if you send me a picture of your craft I will post them up here. 

I know I have posted coloring sheets already but they seem to be so popular I started looking for more. I like these a lot too. You can print them without the ads on them. So get to printing and hand your goblins some colors and let the refrigerator art flow.

We did go to the festival, in fact we just got back.  I will post a few pictures and tell you more about it later.  It was so much fun and it was worth the $7 entry fee.  There were alot of pumpkins there.

I am so excited about this time of the year. I love the holidays and by this time we are starting to get a little nicer weather in Florida. I found this nifty little website that tells me about the festivals that are going on around the state of Florida. The first one I believe we are going to attend is the HUNSADER FARMS PUMPKIN FESTIVAL. I was so excited to see that they have a corn maze, I have always wanted to do one of those. So hopefully, wish me luck, on Saturday we will load up the girls and take a trip down to Bradenton. They are going to have craft booths, I love crafts. I am really excited to see the scarecrows also, I really don’t remember ever seeing a scarecrow in real life before.

The best way to breeze through 642-901 and 70-293 is to first study for 642-552 and then 70-526. In fact studying for 70-526 will also prepare you for 70-431.

I got a comment from a reader telling me thanks for posting the pumpkin patterns.  You are so very welcome and it is my pleasure.  I am putting a call out to eveyone.  Here ye!!!!  Here ye!!!!  If you use any of the ideas I have posted on here for you guys please send me a picture and let me share it with everyone.  We would love to see your creations.  Especially the stuff you do for and with your littles ones.  I will keep an eye on my inbox for all of those pictures.

With the economy the way it is today and have a couple of kids buying costumes just is not feasible.  I found a site that will help with that problem.  You can make your own costumes with things you find the from second hand store, like Salvation Army or Good Will.  I personally like the Salvation Army better then Good Will but whatever you have near you is fine.  I think my favorite make yourself costume is The American Tourist.  It is so simple make, all you need is a Hawaiian Shirt, straw hat and a El cheapo camera to hang around your neck.

I found this website that has Halloween coloring pages you can print out for free.  Our youngest loves to color and I can not keep her in coloring books because she uses them so fast.  This place has over 40 individual pictures you can print out.  The best thing about them: they print out on one piece of paper and because the kids add their own color you print them in black and white saving that precious colored ink.  The pictures also print without any ads on them. 

 Have a look and happy coloring.
