We started keeping things simple a few years ago out of necessity. It turns out we like it that way and enjoy Christmas more!

Tonight the kids and I went to TJMaxx (the kids choice) so they could do some shopping for Trav and I. We had an ice cream then in to the dollar store so they could shop for one of their siblings! This was a first and we all had so much fun!! Missed having daddy with us.

He has worked so hard to keep us financially afloat. The burden has been heavy with me not working much and all the added expenses. Thanks T! We love you and appreciate you!

Turns out when you have 8 kiddos shopping the presents pile up real quick!
