Lunches - saving time by planning ahead


We don't have a lot of time in the mornings to make lunches and we are never quite organized enough to make lunches the night before.  As an alternative, we've come up with some shortcuts...

This bin sits in our pantry and is filled with school safe (no nuts) snacks.

This bin sits in our fridge and holds all sorts of things depending on the week.  In this picture we have jello, yogurt, sausage, cheese, apples and plums.

This is the last bin.  It also sits in the pantry and holds fruit, fruit sauce and pudding.

Oh Christmas Tree

I let the kids completely decorate the tree this year.  At the very end I lifted the kids up high to decorate where they wanted to and I added another 3-4 decorations on my own.  Here was the the result.

I love how all the lower branches have multiple decorations on each branch.  I think I counted 5 decorations on one branch.

I kept it this way for the whole time that the tree was up.  It just fits how we are.

Mom of the Year!

Should I have hidden this reading material in a better place than in the magazine rack?
