More Christmas Kids

The girls are of course, fascinated by the tree, the lights, the ornaments, the gifts!  

A fun trip to a local shop that was decorated to the nines!

Liv's New Skilz

Liv was helping me make dinner the other night. Check her out! 

This Year's Gingerbread Cottage

Another fun gingerbread project! 

As usual, we do the baking the day before. 

((I tried werther's candies for the windows this year. I'd recommend sticking with the lemon sour balls (or yellow jolly ranchers), the werthers are too much the same color as the gingerbread in the daylight, and too opaque to light up properly in the evening.))

Our friends Lisa and Lauren came over to join us in the decorating fun! 

I wish I could share a picture of the 3 little girls sitting under the table eating candy, while I frosted above them... :)

The (nearly) finished cottages
