Traditions: Gingerbread Houses.

I love this picture!! We got a gingerbread house village this year so each of the older kids could make their own house! J3 and I did the 5th house and Papa smeared icing on everything :) He looks annoyed but he's really not! J and L are holding the roofs of their houses on so the 'glue' can set (icing) and E is showing me the sprinkles to go on top and R is loving the bowls of candy!! J3 wasn't at all interested in building houses with icing and putting candy on them.. he was just interested in the candy!! He's already got one in his hand. We did get him to put ONE on the house.. but that was IT!! LOL.

A Sticky Yummy Treat!!

Papa saw these huge lollipops one day when we were shopping and HAD to get them for the kids... He picked out each color to match each child and  placed them gently in their stockings! The kids eyes POPPED when they saw them and they couldn't wait to 'taste' them!! They are super yummy!!

Can you say SUGAR RUSH?? LOL!!  

Honor Roll!!

J, L and E all made the A honor roll for 1st Term!! Great work!! They worked hard all term and I'm VERY PROUD of them :)
