Yeah, It's Party Time!

Ultimate Blog Party 2012

It's that time of year- time to party around the blogosphere!  I've participated in UBP in years past and it's so much fun.  It's great to take the time and read new blogs, meet new cyber friends, and hopefully win big prizes!  If you've never participated in the Ultimate blog party, you'll have to check it out. 

If you are coming over from the UBP, WELCOME!!  Here is a little bit about me, my family, and my blog.

I'm Jen!
I'm a tad bit silly for my age- just playing charades with the kiddos!
Meet Sunshine and Peanut!
This is how litlte my girlies were when I started this blog! 
tear, tear...
just 5 and 3 years old!



Here they are today.. turning 8 and 10. Yikes!

This photo was taken right before a Taylor Swift Concert! See I can look mature, too. he, he!

Meet Little Man!
Loves to paint... age 2- a terrific two (on most days!)

AND now meet my better half... love for most of my life.
Met him when I was just about 15 years old.
Recent pic with little man on his baptism day- there's my hubby on the right! 
Met him in a grocery store in 1986. Yes.. 26 years ago!

Okay... now a litlte bit about Creative and Curious Kids!  What will you find here? 
-learning ideas for toddlers to Elementary aged kids
-fun ways to inspire creativity
-toddler fun (ABC,123,sensory, fine motor..)
-book suggestions with activities
-higher level thinking and activities that nuture curiousity 

I have a background in education and enjoy sharing with other parents and teachers. And learning from them, of course! Also, I school my kiddos at home via cyberschool, so I often share some of their learning experiences. I'm also the keeper of The Messy Nest (my new blog focusing on my organizational/decluttering goals) and I share Christian ideas/thoughts over at God's Shining Stars. So basically I'm one busy woman who you'll find all over the place!

So glad that you took the time to stop by!

Sounds like a busy and fun life! We are similar in that we are Christians and we homeschool as well. Always nice to meet someone else passionate about that!

Hope you have fun at the party this week and that you'll stop by and say hi when you get a chance!

Hi Jen, although I visit on and off I enjoyed learning more about your family today. You had me trying to figure out how long I've known my husband...18 years, so not as long as you. Enjoy the rest of your weekend! - Janelle
