Hello and happy Monday!…except now that it’s Monday, that means Thanksgiving break is over, and it’s time to head back to school. That’s ok because I actually like December at school. I feel like the weeks usually fly by as we wrap up first semester.
Speaking of “flying by,” how is it December?! I’m linking up with Tanya to share my recent Amazon purchases.

This month’s post has quite a few purchases thanks to the kids’ birthday and prepping for Christmas.
I needed file folders for school, so I bought this pack. So much of what we do is digital, but I still have plenty of hard copies to keep up with in my filing cabinet.

I loved my fall “Cozy Girl” coloring book so much that I purchased the Christmas version. It’s just as cute as the fall one.

Bummer! BOTH pencil trees that I have (but have had for four – five years) needed some help in the light department. I bought two packs of these hundred bulb strands to use on mine and Hadley’s bedroom trees. They worked perfectly for what we needed.

I’ve had these remote controlled outlets for quite a few years, and I purchased another pack because Hadley wanted one for her room. I’ll use the other two for our outside lights.
This set of three is truly so handy. From my original set, I use one for the Christmas tree in the living room, one for the set of trees on the chest in the living room, and then the last one for the tree in the bedroom. I just use the remote to click them on/off in the morning and then before bed at night.

Well, my life changed forever when this label maker arrived! I actually had it on my list as a suggestion for Christmas, but once I got out all my Christmas decor, and I have quite a few remote controls (like for the set above), that I wanted to get organized. I use the app on my phone and then it prints! I’ve been a labeling fool since it arrived!

Hadley requested these slides for her birthday. They are a great price and all the rage for teens!

Hadley also had this cute little cotton bag on her birthday list. The price is less than $9 and such good quality. I filled it with cosmetic things she uses which was a good refill for what she needed.

One of the things I put in her bag was this blush stick by e.l.f.

One of Hayden’s requests was this brush to clean his golf clubs. He’s really into golfing this year!

‘Tis the season for shopping…and finding good deals! I’ve purchased a few things via Amazon, but they are Christmas gifts. I never know who reads my blog, so I don’t want to give anything away!
It’s Cyber Monday, so I’m sure Amazon will have some great deals!
In case you missed my last “gratitude” post on Saturday, here it is.
Happy shopping,

I have an old school type and print kind of label maker and I use it all the time; especially for thing like labeling storage totes but I never thought of labeling our many many similar looking remotes- that is a great idea!

My white pencil tree lights are still going strong. I forgot to do the green one yesterday – it was on my list. our decor is just so minimal this year due to Eddie otis, but that’s ok! We are excited to shop for him and fill his stocking. Good idea to label. I have started using sharpie on baggies to write what each charger goes to. We have so much that needs charging now!

Yes to all of the lights! I find Amazon always comes through- Home Depot and Walmart were both out of warm white lights this weekend already
