If you’ve been a Take 10 reader for awhile, you know all about St. Nick and my very selfish reasons for keeping this tradition going. If you are new check out a previous post a couple years ago about St. Nick and why I LOVE him so much. Plus it will link you to some
A friend posted this photo on Facebook this morning. I, of course, had to know more details. And then I, of course, had to ask to steal her photo and share the idea with everyone! Thanks Gretchen!!! She has two daughters. Each girl has one of these in order to countdown to Christmas this month.
Some of you saw on Facebook last week that I had never been to Izzy’s before. Crazy, right? Well, I fixed that over the weekend. The kids are starting to catch on that we go out and do things because of Take 10 With Tricia. The above is the result of them. “Hey MOM!!! Take
First of all, these are NOT my photos! However, I did steal them off of Facebook with permission. Two of my FB friends attended the same “Friendsgiving” party over the weekend. And these are their creations. I knew they were such great ideas that I just had to share them. I begged for the photos

Many of you already saw on Instagram or Facebook that we spent last week on a Disney Cruise. As a TOTAL surprise to the kids. That morning they had no idea we were getting on an airplane. I captured the surprise…it’s not the best video, but it’s still worth viewing. I think Stella was just
I have a dreaded feeling that this year’s Halloween is going to be as bad or even worse than last year’s. And that’s a major bummer. My Instagram picture from last year is above. Charlotte’s face says it best. We got caught in a downpour and gave up on the trick-or-treating for pumpkin pie and
If you are familiar at all with Gabriel Brothers and their annual toy sale, then all I have to say are two words to make you happy…IT’S HERE! If you are not familiar, you should make yourself familiar if you would like to save some money on toys for the holidays. The annual toy sale
