Fun camera bag: The Bowler

Categories: Great Gift Ideas, Mom's Must Haves

No Comments

I’ve had my current camera-bag-disguised-as-a-purse for two years and it’s held up well despite daily use. It is looking a little worse for wear, and I had fully intended on replacing it with the same line, but then I saw this one. I mean, HOW GREAT IS THIS CAMERA BAG? So great. And added to my Christmas wish list.

Board games: Chess sets

Categories: Great Gift Ideas, Kid Stuff

Our family loves to play board games and my eldest child has recently taken up interest in chess. We have the generic board but Christmas/his birthday will be here before we know it and his other favorite games are anything Mario related, so this will blow his mind.

But it gets even better: Apply coupon code ESPN and get it for just $3.99, instead. That’s 26 issues delivered, for about fifteen cents a magazine. That’s a great deal!

Mom’s Must Haves: Family Tree Necklace

Categories: Great Gift Ideas, Mom's Must Haves

I’ve been wanting to get some kind of jewelry to represent my family and while a ring full of each family member’s birthstone is traditional and great and awesome, and I may just get one some day…I am not much of a ring wearer. I wear my engagement ring and wedding band and that’s it when it comes to rings. Necklaces, however, are my thing.

This Family Tree Necklace is on my etsy wish list and pinned on Pinterest. I love it.

$70.00 @ Etsy.com
