I love for everything to match so we pick our paper for Santa and now it’s not weird when it’s in our house. We leave it out for our elf to take back since she reports to Santa every night anyway. You’re welcome! 😉#momhack #momhacks #christmas #christmasmomhack #christmasdecor #santa

Our elf Trixie has so many fun ideas to share with you. Easy and fun ideas that’ll make your kids laugh. #elfontheshelf #elfonashelf #elfontheshelfideas #elfontheshelfchallenge #elfonthedaily #elfontheshelfadventures #christmas

Don’t wrap Christmas lights around your big trees, do this instead. This time we use green lights, but we have also done white and twinkly lights in the past and it looks great. #christmaslight #christmas #christmasdecor #outdoorlights

This weekend I took my daughter and my niece to donate over 350 toys to our local children’s hospital. We collected these toys at our 5th annual Santa party a couple of weeks ago and thanks to many of you as well. This event that we call Charlie & Ava’s Magic of Giving is my favorite of the year because it teaches all the children invited the importance of giving back. This year my daughter was hospitalized for the first time ever and she received a gift while she was at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. The gift and the volunteers that came in to play board games with her truly made her day. It’s the little things that brighten a child’s day when they’re in the hospital. We only spent 1 night there, I cannot even imagine what it’s like for the families that spend countless nights in the hospital. Giving back to the hospital means more to us than ever. We’ve donated the toys to Nicklaus for several years now, but this year it’s extra special to us. I am so proud of my daughter and niece to see them embracing acts of kindness and finding joy in helping others. I hope to continue to teach them to be compassionate and help make the world a better place. @Nicklaus4Kids @Magic of Giving #magicofgiving #toydrive #santaparty #charlieandavasmagicofgiving #holidayparty

One of my favorite perks of my family having a house in Disney Golden Oak is that we can visit all of the hotels whenever we want. I always like to visit my favorites during Christmas time to see the decor. #disney #goldenoak #christmas #christmasindisney #disneyhotels #disneyholidays #grandfloridian #contemporaryresort #wildernesslodge #polynesianresort

Replying to @geminitvvinn we named ours Fairytale Cottage. We wanted The Belle House since it’s modeled after Belle’s Cottage, but character names are not allowed. #fairytalecottage #bellescottage #belle #thebellehouse #beautyandthebeast #goldenoak #disney #disneyworld #waltdisneyworld

Such a fun girls night watching the live action of our favorite disney movie @areastage #beautyandthebeast #musical #theater #disneyshow

I have been promising her we would do this packet the last few visits, so we finally got around to it. However I severely underestimated how long it would take! #animalkingdom #disney #disneyday #goldenoak #disneymom #wildernessexplorer
