Gingerbread House

A couple of weeks ago we went to my Mom's house and made Gingerbread house from kit the her Aunt had made. The kids had a great time and did really good. Mary said when she started putting the gummy bears around the house "this is going to look fabulous!"

Snow Fun

The kids loved playing in the snow. We made a snowman with Jim's cousin and went sledding at her house. She has great hill in the pasture next to her house that is great for kids. Emily would go down as many times as she could. "Me do it" she would say. Everyone had a great tiem and can't wait for it to snow again.

Getting ready for Christmas

The kids have had a great time decorating for Christmas. We took these pictures in front of the trees before Emily pulled them over. We now a big tree instead of the pole trees in hopes that the tree will stay up.

Butter Anyone!!

We had just had blueberry muffins for breakfast, Mary got the butter out again to have another one while I hoped in the shower and apparently Emily wanted some butter. You should have seen the clumps on the back of her head. She loves to get into EVERYTHING.( she has already pulled down our Christmas trees) She loves to climb and just be one of the big kids, but we love her anyway!
