First, here’s the finished Gingerbread House of the year:
Saturday, we really enjoyed digging out of the snow and seeing Dad & Karen at Auntie Kate’s house. We were sad that so many family members weren’t able to make it, but we had a great time visiting with those that came.
When we got home, we had a small mountain of gifts to open. The kids were SO excited.
I think these blankets were the biggest hits. The kids stayed wrapped in them all evening and have been using them every night.
Alyson has figured out the ‘See what I got’ pose 🙂
Christian’s Nerf gun and target were big hits.
Playdough was a bit hit too.
Alyson made snakes using only the girl colors of playdough. Then she decided the snakes were spaghetti.
We’ve all been enjoying BJ’s Boom Blox Wii game. It’s a lot more fun than I expected.
BJ got a little crazy around the Playdough.
Sunday, we enjoyed our church’s annual birthday party for Jesus. It’s my favorite sunday school hour of the year because it’s fun to sing carols around the Christmas tree. Alyson is so grown up this year. She went around in the inner circle without us parents.
We still have one more Christmas celebration this coming weekend, but in the meantime, Happy New Year!
