Marvel Fluxx is a recent addition to our game collection. It travels well so we brought it with us to our Florida vacation. I will share all about our trip in a few future posts. Today I have some photos and stories of our time in the Marvel section of Universal Florida.

Middle School beginnings and more to come – Selfie Sunday
Middle school beginnings can be so rough, but I am super happy to say the twins are handling it like champs! They have great friends and great attitudes. We’ve had some bumps that are typical at their age, but we are working through them. Every night ends with “I love you”, and every morning starts with “good morning.” So I call that a win.
Diamond Dotz are fun for kids, too!
I had so much fun making my Diamond Dotz canvas that I was sure these would be craft kits kids would like too. Turns out I was right, Diamond Dotz are a big hit with the girls. I wasn’t sure if their attention span would last, but Kyla and Vada found it so fun that they finished them in a couple of days. There are also some smaller kits that can be done in one sitting if you don’t have the time or the space for a larger/longer project. So if you are looking for craft kits kids would like, look no further than Diamond Dotz!
Canvas Art – fun with the kids!
Quality and creativity go hand in hand with Canvas Art kits from Royal & Langnickel. These art kits come with a printed canvas and markers or paint. I got 2 of each for the girls to try out, though they would be suitable for adults as well (I was a little jealous that I didn’t have any to paint myself!)
Sculpey Fun with Kyla and Vada

While at Creativations I was given some Sculpey Souffle and a Sculpey Bead Making Kit to give a try. I decided to use it with the girls, and see what they could create.
Making Stickers with Xyron
The girls are at it again making some cool stickers from Xyron. See why they think the Xyron Sticker Maker is so fun and easy to use.
The products reviewed in this post were provided by Xyron.
I was recently given some 3″ disposable/recyclable Xyron sticker makers for the girls to review.
We started out by designing the stickers. The girls each drew some of there own, and I also printed them both out some mandalas to color from THIS SITE. The printables are at the end of the post and you do have to sign up to get them, but you won’t get spammed, don’t worry!
Super Bowl Sunday and other such fun!
We’ve had a fun-filled couple of weeks here At Home. Last Saturday (the day before the Super Bowl), we had a relaxing day at home. That’s always nice.
Then on Sunday we went to a friend’s house for a Super Bowl party. Our friend Chris was there. Kyla adores him and calls him “Dude”. They are adorable together. He’s also a brand new daddy, hence the big mug of coffee.
10 years old!
Wow, 10 years of Jessie at Home, thank you my constant readers and even the not so constant ones. What will the next 10 bring? Let’s find out together!
Can you believe it, Jessie At Home is 10 years old today! That’s right, my first post was 10 years ago. It’s crazy to think I’ve been typing away (on several different laptops) for so long. And some of you have been with me for most of that time. Wow! I really adore all of you, weather this is the first post of mine you’ve ever read, or weather you’ve read all of them (hi Mom and Dad!) Thank you.
It all started
Holiday 2017 wrap up
Happy New Year my friends. I’ve got a few snaps from the holiday season to share with you. We’ve had about a week and a half with everyone at home, and they go back to school and work on Wednesday. It’s been a nice time.
We made cookies the weekend before Christmas. Chocolate chip, chocolate and peanut butter chip, and sugar cookies.
Fall fun!
See what’s shakin’ with the Rayot girls at home from Holloween to Thanksgiving.
How has your fall been, my friends? I thought I’d share a bit about ours today.
The girls had a great Halloween. Kyla was Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars Clone Wars (the animated series, not the movie). Vada was a spider fairy. They got lots of candy and had a blast.
