PackageFromSanta #review #christmas #holidays

Isaak is on the fence when it comes to Santa. It's no surprise - Mica stopped believing when he was in 4th grade, as did I. Isaak's in 5th grade. He's told me that many of his friends don't believe. I just tell him, "That's too bad!" Then he says, "I know."

I had the chance to review a Package From Santa. You can get your own package at: PackageFromSanta.com. I picked one that's for kids that are doubting Santa's existence. Start a Magical Christmas Family Tradition That Your Child Will Cherish Forever!

Isaak's package came in the mail today. He was so excited to get mail!

  • a personalized VIDEO starring your child via email
  • a personalized PHONE CALL
  • a personalized printable NICE LIST GUIDE
  • and the option to upgrade with MORE goodies!
He didn't want me to see any of his package. He said it's between he and Santa. I had to sneak photos of it, while he was in the shower.

A fun photo of Santa:


The letter for the 1/2 believer:


I loved the seal:


A Nice List Certificate, which overall he is nice:


Santa's Flight Plan:

Isaak did ask how Santa got his photo? I said I blog, and am on FB all the time. Santa must have gotten his photo from online. ;)


I think it's a fun package! They were really fast with the order. I had no problems ordering it! Lately with reviews it's like this code doesn't work... Not this company!

I Hope You Had a Great Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! 

We celebrated with my sisters, their kids and my parents. We had snack type foods, and played games all Thanksgiving day.

Today (Saturday) we went over to my aunt's house to have a big meal. Everyone brings something. There we played Rummikub. I'm glad I brought my game, and my aunt had a set. We had 2 games going.

Thankfully both days were good days, for playing outside. The kids were free to run around. Now (Saturday night) we're in a snow storm watch. That's the crazy thing about Nebraska - it's jacket weather one day and freezing cold the next.

Food:

I've had a mini pie maker for a few years, but this is the first year I used it. Have you ever had something you bought or acquired, but hardly used it? I acquired the mini pie maker from my Mom's Cousin. This year I put it to use! I made 13 mini pumpkin pies for one event, and eight or nine pies for the other get together. No left overs.


I've never been successful with making pie crust, but want to try someday. There's this post I found that shows step-by-step instructions in making pie crust. I encourage you to try it out! Here it is: https://www.jenreviews.com/pie-crust/. The next time I make pies I'm following the All Butter Pie Crust Recipe


Isaak and Travis helped me make a turkey veggie tray. They helped a lot because I had to quickly go to the store to get dip. We hardly have dip at home, so I forget that some people only have veggies with dip. The dip was barely touched. Ha!


How was your Thanksgiving? What food did you make?

WW: Hello! Is it Me You're Looking For? {Linky}

When I saw this image of Lionel Richie and said, "Travis you HAVE to take my photo with him!"


While he was shooting the photo a store person came up and said, "Sorry you can't be on that." I thought he was talking to me. Nope! He was talking to Mica that was resting on a display bed.

I said, "Travis hurry up and take one more just in case we get snapped at next."
