Little Tikes table and chairs REDO (Trash to Treasures)

My parents awhile back found these Little Tikes table and chairs that someone was throwing away and brought them to me for my little girls to use. I have had them for awhile now and kept them in the garage for the girls to use when they played with play-doh or when we did painting projects. I didn't paint the tables and chairs when I first got them because they were just used in the garage for "Messy play project" but now that I was reorganizing the garage I thought I should make them look nicer and repaint them.

Because the table had so many scratches and things on it I decided to prime it first.

Then I painted it a glossy black. I choose black because white and any other color would get dirty to quick and this table was still going to be in the garage for the girls to use with their garage toys.

With the chairs I just painted it without priming it.

I wanted to give the black table a Pop of color so I used this pretty cheetah tape that we had left over from a Girl Scout Project Ari had done and wrapped it around the top of the table.

This table and chairs came out so cute. I can't wait to see how they look in the garage/playroom when I reorganize it.

Dog Theme Movie Night

So I am having a lot of fun with our Family Movie Theme Nights and create a new one last night. Check out my Family Movie Night Snack Bar post to see the original one I created. 

Ari has been loving all the "Buddies" dog movies: Super Buddies, Santa buddies, and Spooky Buddies etc. so she wanted to watch "Air Buddies" for our movie night this Saturday so I decide to make a "Dog Theme Movie Night" to go with the movie. I found some great ideas from a post found on Pinterest title Family Movie Night-Bolt

on what food ideas to serve and I came up with some of my own.

 First I printed out the Movie cover title we were watching and created the menu with my computer.

Now on to the food. I made Hot Dogs of course for our theme and Potato "Bone" Fries. On the post that I saw the lady made these for her Bolt dinner but didn't show how to make them so I figured I would make them how I make potato wedges.

First I took a long potato peeled and slice it as thin as I could and used a bone shape cookie cutter to make the shape.

Then I put them in a bowl and drizzled olive oil and salt on them and mix them together.

I layered the bone potatoes on a foil lined baking pan and baked them @400 for 25-30 min.

I also served Cinnamon "Bone" Tortillas and "Bone" Cheese.

To make the Cinnamon "Bone" Tortillas I took flour tortillas and cut them into bone shapes.

Then I spread melted butter on them and sprinkled cinnamon/sugar mix over them.

I then baked them in the oven @400 for 10-15 minutes or until crispy.

For the "Bone" cheese I took a block of Mozzarella cheese and cut it in slices and then used the Bone cookie cutter to shape them.

Instead of popcorn I served the girls "Puppy chow" (which is just the Chex Mix "Muddy Buddies"  recipe) in small dog bowls that I found at Dollar Tree. (No dog has eating from these bowls these were NEW ones I bought just for my girls) 

 This was our "Dog Theme Snack Bar"

Bri was so excited to eat out of her Dog Bowl!

They wanted to eat just like the dogs do LOL!!

They were having so much fun with their "Dog theme Food" and acting so silly. They REALLY  enjoy this movie night.

I hope you enjoyed this post and I hope it gives you ideas to do with your family.

Heart Shape Hot Pockets

Not wanting to waste anything especially food I decided to take the left over cut out cheese and turkey slices that I used to make our "Homemade Valentine Lunchable" and make "Heart Shape Hot Pockets".

All you need is:

• Frozen Biscuits dough
• Cheese
• Turkey
• Heart Shape Cookie cutter



Take the leftover cheese and turkey and chop them up into small pieces. Then roll out biscuit dough and use the cookie cutter to cut the shape out.

Add cheese and turkey to the dough.

Then add another piece of heart shape dough on top. Brush the top with butter and bake in the oven @350 until golden brown.

These came out better than the store bought ones and the girls love when I make their food into themes so this was a big hit.

Heart within a Heart Homemade Pizza

So I took our Homemade pizza recipe and put a Heart shape twist to it for Valentines Day. The girls love this pizza recipe better than regular pizza and making it heart shape was even better for them.

All you need is:

• Slice Bread
• Left over Spaghetti sauce
• White cheese
• Turkey slices 
• Heart shape cookie cutters

First we cut a heart shape out of the slice bread.

Then we added the left over spaghetti sauce.

Then the white cheese. You can use slice white cheese if you have it just cut it out into the shape of the bread to fit over the sauce.

Then take a smaller heart shape cookie cutter and cut out heart shapes out of the turkey slice.

Put the heart shape turkey slice in the middle of the pizza.

Put it in the oven @350 until the cheese melts and the bread is toasted.

This recipe was so easy to make the girls made it on their own.

When it was time to serve I added some strawberries that I cut into hearts.

The girls ate all of their heart pizza and wanted to make more!
