Gingerbread Fun and Christmas Eve . . .

Every year we make a gingerbread house, and this year was now different . . . still "boys" and "girls" sides . . . and this year you couldn't really tell which did which . . . quite impressed!!!

Daddy and the kids building it

Mommy's turn to get in the pictures - the girl's side is showing for the roof!!!

What can I say . . . I kinda got carried away with the icing bag and ... well ...

Now they all have runny icing noses!!! Don't sneeze!!!

We HAD to take a picture after and all crowded in together . . . can you find the one that isn't happy and squished???

Tonight is Christmas Eve so we went to our church's Christmas Eve service. The kids had fun being a part of the service as angels and a shepard - singing and everything.

Emma's on the far left and Navia, the short little one kissing the camera :)

Kaleb waiting for his part . . .

finally . . . candy canes on the tree!

After the service we came home to open up the one present (like we do each year) and it was hilarious seeing how excited the kids were at their presents . . . pajamas . . . like they get every year on Christmas Eve! You gotta love kids!!!


Sorry - they just had to do funny face poses . . .

Then is was time to put out the cookies and milk for Santa and the reindeer food for Santa's reindeer. The kids love doing this because just before they go to bed they take the reindeer food and sprinkle it all over the front in the snow so that the reindeer know which house is ours, just by smelling . . . and it gives them something to snack on while Santa is doing all the presents. It's just oatmeal and colored sugar so that any animals will enjoy it as well.

Sprinkling the "reindeer food" . . . pj's and boots . . . hehehe!

Good night now my little ones, sleep tight . . . tomorrow will be a fun day!!!
