Gingerbread Houses

Every year we go out to my parents house and make gingerbread houses. They aren't real gingerbread though. They are wood cut outs that you can just wash up and re use next year. Anyways, so this is a picture of all of them. It goes Evan's, mine, Derek's, Dakota's and my mom's. They all turned out really cute! I made Evan's out of grahm crackers. It turned out way cute!! And Derek's......well, Derek has alot of fun making these as you can tell. He added a second story on his house :-)
Evan's cute little house, mommy and daddy's mansion!

Dakota and my mom!


And cute little Skylar! Isn't she adorable?? She didn't make one, but she sure ate enough candy, Probably as much as would go on a house!! Gotta love her!



And my favorite little boy!! This is his first year making houses and he is just so proud of his house!! At first when we put frosting on, and had him grab some candy, he asked "what do I do?? Put these in my mouth??" Haha. After we explained that the candy goes on the house, he had alot of fun making this. It is still out to my mom's, and he keeps asking me why it isn't at our house. Poor little guy! :-)




Santa is coming to town!!

So every year, Rigby does a little Chrismas parade and Santa comes to town! So I decided to bundle up the kids and take them out to the parade. Evan loved the parade, and Skylar didn't. Sigh! It would be nice for them both to be on the same page! :-) Anyways, after the parade we went to see Santa. In this picture, Skylar is doing pretty good, but as soon as I try to put her on his lap with Evan, she freaked out! Evan on the other hand was super excited. This is the first year that he finally get's it. When Santa asked him what he wanted for Christmas, he just said "I don't know." Then Santa started asking him what he likes to do, and he said he likes vroom vroom cars. So now anytime anyone asks him about Santa, he says "Santa is going to come to my house and bring me presents. He is going to bring me a vroom vroom car!" Too cute!! Good thing he is getting some cars!
