Christmas Comes Early

We decided that since we will be gone for Christmas this year we would have two Christmas days and open up the presents that couldn't be taken to Washington. Basically I am only bringing their stockings and one present and those took up enough space. Our first Christmas was this last Sunday so that Bryce could be here with us since he works such crazy hours during the week.







That evening we had our friends over Nate, Chelsea and their kids Broden and Allison to build gingerbread houses. It was really fun but I don't think I will make my own gingerbread again. I'm not sure it was worth all the work...probably will just stick with the kits from now on. Case ate about the same amount of candy that he put on the house but that's all the fun, right? He did a really good job decorating with a bit of help from me...






Have a very merry Christmas everyone!! We are very excited to be going to Washington and visiting with all our family!

  3. And you made the gingerbread? You amaze me girl! Everyone is getting so crafty lately because of Pinterest and I'm just working my butt off. I think I need to quit and be more crafty. I miss being crafty! Christmas looks like it was fun at your house!
