How I Became Shared Jelly

When my husband and I first got married we used to get messages on our answering machine for "Shared" and "Jelly" instead of Jared and Shelly. The first time we chuckled a little over it and by the fourth or fifth time, we decided the name should stick somewhere. And so, I've been sharing jelly all over the internet since. Enjoy!

Christmas Book Countdown

I got this idea from my friend, Alisha a couple of years ago and love this little tradition for our family.  I have collected 24 Christmas books (over 3 years and thanks to Scholastic book orders that make it more affordable).  I wrap up all the books and each night the kids get to take a turn to open our special Christmas story to read before bed.  I love it because it gives them a chance to open presents before Christmas and it makes for a special few moments spent together before bed.
