Our Kickoff to the Christmas Season

We kicked off this holiday season these past two nights by decorating the Christmas tree and decorating our beautiful, definitely one-of-a-kind gingerbread house. Here are some pics that capture the fun times that we had.
















Evan had more fun eating the candy than anything else. He knew he wasn't supposed to - thus the look on his face.


And here it is - our masterpiece! I am positive that if there was a gingerbread house contest we would take 1st prize with this baby!


And just in case you wanted a close up - here she is!!!

  8. Darling pictures. It is about time I looked at some blogs. I love the lighting in the pictures of your tree. Those are definitely ones you will want to keep. (the pictures and the kids!) I so much enjoyed visiting your house on Christmas. I guess I really am a full-fledged grammie now.
