Another Christmas tradition is decorating gingerbread houses. This year, I bought the 4 pack. Everyone gets their own. No fighting over icing or candy. Genius!
 |
| Jackson was sick the day we made them, but the girls enjoyed this little activity. They were so proud of their hard work, especially Lila. |
 |
| Cami's masterpiece! Too bad I didn't get a close up of Lila's work... |
 |
because this guy ate the whole darn thing minutes after we left the kitchen!
But kudos to me for buying the 4 pack! |
 |
| A few days later it was the last day before Christmas break. Such an exciting time~ |
 |
Cameron just has the cutest preschool class!
They were all so happy to take a call picture with Mrs. Brandt! |
 |
| Shortly after I dropped off Cami, I was at elementary school for Lila's Winter Party. It's been a few years, but I can still Room Mom with the best of them! The kids made these cute marshmallow snowmen... |
 |
| played a few games... |
 |
| and hung out with their friends. |
 |
| As we were leaving, Mrs. Bhakta stopped me and told me "If there's ever been a perfect student, Lila is it. She's helpful, stays on task, and is just a dream to be around." Made my mama heart so happy! |
 |
| I thanked Mrs. Bhakta for her kind words and then we ran over to see Cami perform some Christmas songs. |
 |
| She knew every word and all the motions. Bravo, my little star! |
 |
| We enjoyed cupcakes and punch... |
 |
| and everyone told her what a fabulous performer she was. |
 |
| She gave Hadlie one last goodbye hug and then we were out of there! |
 |
| A little while later, we were at Deerfield getting ready to board our horse-drawn carriage. |
 |
This is our third annual Christmas light event in honor of Memaw's birthday.
We look forward to it every year! |
 |
| It was the perfect night--cool, but not freezing, and very clear. |
 |
| Connor gave it two thumbs up! |
 |
| This was our favorite house. It won best decorations in the whole neighborhood and it was well deserved. They even had a snowman covering the front door! |
 |
Happy Birthday to Memaw and cheers to a wonderful night with family.
