Gift Ideas//Day 3🎄🎄

 Have you ever felt stuck when trying to decide what to get friends and family for Christmas? I know I sure have. Often times, it's December 20th, and I still have Christmas shopping to do! I'm definitely not the type to get an early start, lol. So, this is a list of my favorite Christmas gifts, perfect for friends and family.

  1. A box of goodies. This is a great idea, especially during this crazy season, where some people might not be able to get together with family members. It's also a super simple way to say "Merry Christmas! I'm thinking of you." It's also fairly inexpensive, depending on how much you want to put in the box. Simply fill up a packing box with some of your receiver's favorite, non-perishable items, such as dry snacks, books, card games, or anything else you can think of! A fun touch would be to cover the inside with wrapping paper. Then, add a personal note telling the person how much they mean to you, tape the box up, and send it out! My pen pal and I have done this before, and I can testify, it's such a nice feeling to receive a "love package!" 
  2. A recipe jar. This can either be shipped or given by hand, which makes this the perfect gift. All you'll need is a Mason jar and recipes for treats, which can be found HERE. The point of this gift is to include the dry ingredients for a sweet treat to a Mason jar, and then include instructions on how to make the treats. This requires very little work on your end, and still makes your friend feel special!
  3. Sugar Scrubs. Okay, to be honest, I've never actually used a sugar scrub. However, I've heard that they are amazing!! This would be a great DIY gift for pretty much anyone, and could potentially go in your box of goodies. There are many, many recipes for sugar scrubs on the internet, but this one is a peppermint flavored scrub, perfect for the Christmas season. 
Okay, hopefully this has given you some ideas for great gifts to give to friends and family!! See ya tomorrow!

Q&A!!

So, my lovely new friend, Sarah Grace, gave me a very good idea for a blog post! A Q&A!! I am super excited about this! Also, Ellen from  Ellen's Musings  is doing one at the same time, so that should be fun to do it alongside her! However, she is also doing assumptions, so that is extra cool! Ask me questions in the comments below, and I will be answering them next Thursday! Please don't ask me my birthday, but pretty much all other questions are good to ask (if one happens to be too personal, I just won't answer it). Have fun! Also, I know some people might be a little confused on how to pronounce my name, lol. It's pronounced like "Kaylee" NOT "Calley." I know, it is different, but I like it! Btw, my Dad wanted to spell it Caelea (My mom vetoed that, lol) My middle name would have made that spelling even more confusing then it already is (heyyyyy that's a question you can ask "What's your middle name" ;))

Top 7 Questions Homeschoolers Are Asked

 Hey y'all! As most of y'all know by now, I am homeschooled, and have been my entire life. I've gotten A LOT of questions about being homeschooled. This post is meant to be funny, and there is absolutely no shade meant to be thrown on anyone!! Please don't take these too seriously! Here are my Top 7 Questions Homeschoolers Are Asked. 1. How do you have a social life/Do you have friends? Surprisingly, I get this one all the time.  I really don't understand. Yes, I have friends!! Church is a great way to meet people. If you play sports, there's another way (and yes, before you ask, homeschoolers do play sports.) to meet great people. Also, if you have friends of friends, often times you meet the nicest people that way. 2. Do you get to do school in your pajamas? This has many different answers depending on who you talk to. For me personally, I do not wear my pajamas to school because I have to get up, get ready, and be downstairs to start school by 8:00. But ye...

I'm Back!!

Hey y'all! I sincerely apologize for not posting for almost 3 months . Has it really been that long? Yes, yes it has. I did not intend on abandoning this blog for that long, but here we are, two and a half months later. I just now have seen the comments asking where I'm at, and I apologize for not responding to those. However, I am back and I don't intend on being gone that long again. Thank you so much for your patience!  So, where have I been? Well, to be honest, I've been living my life. Nothing drastic happened, and I celebrated my seventeenth birthday a couple months ago :). I really don't have an explanation as to why I haven't posted, but I am sorry! I had no idea the last time I posted that it would be the last time for quite awhile. Sheesh!! I plan on posting more "devotional" type posts in the future, so stay tuned :). School has been quite busy these days, and I got behind at one point, so I am just now *finally* getting caught back up.  Y...
