January 9, 2017 by Kendra 1 Comment

Were you to go to any store during the week after Christmas, you would see huge lines. Not at the checkouts, but at the service desk as people are busy returning gifts they didn’t want. Today I want to ask: Will you be returning Jesus? The greatest gift ever given was Jesus. An innocent baby, God in disguise. We welcome him with praises and singing, we rejoice as we learn that this baby will be our redeemer. We read stories […]

December 20, 2015 by Kendra 7 Comments

In a Dear Abby type column last year I read a letter written by a sad and frustrated woman. “My husband gives me horrible gifts” she wrote and pleaded for the answer in helping her husband give her the gifts that truly made the season magical. 1 year he bought her a vacuum and another year it was a Kitchen Aid mixer. Other horrible gifts from him included winter gloves and snow scraper for her car, a padded mat to […]

I have a love/hate relationship with making out wish lists. Keeping it all organized is a pain. I've finally found the perfect way to make our lists and keep them all in one place! Click the photo to learn the easiest online Christmas list making process

Disclaimer: Easiest online Christmas list organization is a collaboration between  A Proverbs 31 wife and Clipix. I have a true love/hate relationship with Christmas lists. Every year I hear “I need your Christmas list”, and every year my mind goes blank. I know I just saw something that I need/want but I cannot remember what it was. I agree that lists are nice, and it’s fun if the person you are buying for has a large list, but most of the time […]

Such a funny Christmas gift to give to neighbors or co-workers! Use puns to make it funny!

This year we we will be giving a lot of Punny Christmas Gifts. Not only are these Christmas gifts humorous, most of them are very practical and useful. A side benefit is the fact that they don’t cost a whole lot either. In fact, the best fun usually is the cheapest. 🙂 You can create a punny gift basket to give neighbors, or a grab bag of funny punny gifts to hand out to co-workers. I made two gift baskets, […]

Our no more drama secret when it comes to holiday scheduling

How about a year with no more drama? Or a Holiday season without the normal scheduling drama? When I was growing up, it seemed that each year, the holidays brought drama, of the scheduling kind. My two grandparents traded off having the big family Christmas on Christmas eve and day. Whomever didn’t have their Christmas on the day would often try and schedule theirs as closely as possible. Of course this is what would happen; Mother’s parents would have the […]

Ways to save money at Christmas by getting creative with gift wrap

Okay, all those pretty gifts, you know, the ones that are perfectly wrapped and sporting beautiful bows? Yeah those gifts, well, they sure aren’t the gifts I wrapped! So maybe I’m a bit tired or maybe it’s laziness due to the little one zapping away all of my energy, but my gifts look anything but picture perfect this year. However, they do have a certain charm all of their own. After all, how many times does a person receive their […]

December 6, 2013 by Kendra 30 Comments

The Jolly Old Elf doesn't visit our house. Even if he did, I'm not too sure he would be welcome....

The “Jolly Old Elf” or the fat man with a fake beard better known as Santa Claus doesn’t visit our house. Of course he doesn’t visit anyone’s house and we all know it. But we just keep lying to the kids. WARNING: I may step on some toes here,  however I don’t require my readers to always agree with me. Every year I find myself cringing. Kids that I watch tell me “Santa Claus is coming”. I overhear parents telling […]

Depending on how your family does your advent calendar. That last day, is either today or tomorrow. But does that really mean advent is over? source Here are my thoughts on advent.
