Christmas Time!!

ITS CHRISTMAS!!! seriously, Christmas is upon us.. in fact, one week from today and it will be the day after.....Snow, Coats, Gingerbread Houses, Letters to Santa... all of the things that seem to make the season go round, right? Last week we made gingerbread houses... it was fun sitting around the table trying to put our creativity to work... and so funny how we all have different thoughts on how our own will turn out. Each of the kids paired up with an adult.... Domi and Lexi with Gramma Debbi, Andrew with Daddy and Steven with me.... it was fun... messy but fun. and, surprisingly, the icing wasnt too bad.... there goes the diet, right?? heehee i was definitely worse than the kids... between (accidentally ;) ;) ) piping the icing on my fingers and sneaking a gumdrop here and there... rofl... we surprisingly had enough for all the houses. i dont even remember the kids sneaking any of the treats that garnished the houses... maybe that is because i was too busy trying to make sure that nobody caught me... HA! they did split up some of the candy that was left over though.... so much fun!!
