Wacky Wednesday shopping finds
Christmas in July…
I love the holiday season, it’s cozy, happy and it keeps me with a constant lump in my throat with the anticipation of what is to come. I cry every Christmas morning when I watch the kids open their gifts; I work really hard to make sure that they have something that makes them smile.
Don’t get me wrong. I love the July holidays! (Yes, my birthday is a July Holiday)
The 4th of July and its berry cakes, and grilled corn on the cob are all AMAZING. The fireworks and laughing families late into the evening are delightful and would warm anyone’s heart.
But nothing matches the December holiday season.
Every Christmas, I get an ornament for my best friend. He and I have been doing that for 15 years, I am always looking for a new one for him. This last year, I got him a Raiders ornament. Against my better judgment, but it is his favorite team, so I had to put my distaste aside.

Then I found this fabulous site. It’s called Yonder Star (Yonderstar.com) such a cute name and amazing things on the site. Great gift ideas, but I LOVE these ornaments I found.Here are the things I’d suggest:
For your chef friend, How about:

For the chocolate lover in your life:

For those that love milk, like our little toddlers, how about this?

However, the winner for me is this ornament! How cool is this? Heck… It is going be my new thing I hang on the fridge with a sheet of paper under it “Check Yes or No”. That way, I know before I come home what I’m picking up!!

What is your favorite ornament you found on the site? Who would you give it to?
