Mouse's Christmas Gift

Tea Party with Mouse

You are never too old for a tea party!  I had a blast at this tea party I threw for my family over Fall Break. (Yes, Christmas is on my mind early this year because of MOUSE’S CHRISTMAS GIFT) 
Thanks to my friend Tonia, I found this fabulous “Christmas Mice” peanut butter cookie recipe from Taste of Home on Pinterest. 

Aren’t they cute? 
I added the cheese cubes (see above) so Mouse would have something to nibble. My kids pointed out that Mouse would not appreciate eating a “mouse.” 
Merry Christmas!
P.S. Do you have a favorite holiday cookie or treat? Feel free to share it in the comment section!

Story Time and Crafts at Barnes & Noble with opportunity to donate to the Indiana Chapter of The Pajama Program

Countdown to Story Time at Barnes and Noble in Noblesville. I’ll be there all day, so come out and say hi! I’m very excited about helping The Pajama Program, which benefits foster children across this country by providing them new pajamas and new books. It would make my heart so happy to know that children in this situation were receiving Mouse’s Christmas Gift. You can purchase a book that day to give to the cause, or you can bring a pair of new pajamas to donate. All donations will go to the Indiana Chapter of The Pajama Program to benefit children in our state. (I live in Indiana)
