Target + Neiman Marcus...let's do this!

If you haven't seen or heard, Target has finally released photos of the amazing Neiman Marcus/designer collaboration gifts that will be sold at Target starting on December 1st. If you thought Missoni for Target was madness, get ready folks because I am sure this one will be just as crazy.

The list of participating designers is quite incredible, and all the items that I saw were around $80 and under. You will find everything from Kids clothing, to home decor, accessories and more. Here is my round-up of favorites...

Tory Burch Lunch Box and Stainless Steel Thermos

Band Of Outsiders cool cookie cutters and Knit Hat set...too cute for brothers or best buds

Derek Lam slippers

Tracy Reese beaded top (GORG!) and adorable dessert plates

What do you think? Is it worth all of the hype? 

Grandparents are the best...

My Mom is a devoted pinner on Pinterest (you can follow her too HERE) It's been so fun to see what she has pinned. It's no surprise we are mother and daughter, we definitely love a lot of the same things! For Valentine's day she put some treats together for our son that she had seen on pinterest.

She found this inspiration on pinterest and sewed this adorable "take along" car holder. My son was so excited when he opened it up. Instead of numbers she spelled out his name. It's precious and will be great for travel or dinner out...

And he got a cute treat bag that says "I dig you" with a shovel. What an adorable idea!

To catch a Leprechaun...

My friend Tonya has 2 boys, Alonzo who is 5 and Roman who is almost 3. In the spirit of St. Patrick's day they have been on the mission to catch a Leprechaun. Tonya is such an awesome mom to come up with some creative ways to try to "catch" the little guy.

here is the trap set up underneath their kitchen table...

notice the green M&M's as "bait" for the leprechaun...

when the M&M's didn't work, Alonzo decided they needed something better to catch the leprechaun. Tonya suggested to bring out the "big guns" with these awesome cool mint Oreo cookie balls that P is for Party shared on their FB page...

This morning the boys will find that they didn't quite catch the Leprechaun, but he left behind some glittery hand prints, a scarf (that she made with felt), gold coins, and some goodies for the boys to enjoy on St.Patrick's day!

Tonya, thanks for sharing this fun little game with us! I am definitely going to do this next year!
