Boxtrolls Family Night!

This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group and Universal Pictures, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #BoxtrollsFamilyNite http://my-disclosur.esOBsstV

Recently we got the opportunity to gather together with our family to watch the new Boxtrolls movie! We love the time we get to spend together. I was seriously so excited because my kids never got to see it in the theaters so I knew it was going to be a huge hit!!

My mother and sister came up with my niece and nephews this last weekend and we made a day of it! My uber talented mother came up with a recipe to make our own Boxtrolls out of the 10 Count Pop Secret Homestyle popcorn we bought from Walmart!

Recipe Gift Idea

By Dru 9 Comments

I’ve been putting some thought into some Valentine’s Day gifts for the special people in my life. I think giving a small token of love is important on this fun day. Candy, or in my case chocolate, is always good, but how about giving a sentimental gift? They mean so much and are kept forever. For Christmas my daughter gave me this beautiful necklace of my son’s handwriting. It truly means so much to have this precious and sweet gift and will be something I will treasure forever. It has motivated me to put even more thought into the gifts or tokens of love I give.

I have a few recipes that were my grandmother’s that I treasure. I love the aged edges and that they are in her handwriting. Do you have keepsakes like this? Maybe some old journals or letters from a grandparent? Wouldn’t framed copies of your items make perfect gifts for your loved ones?
