Fun times at Christmas!
The kids each got to decorate a mini Christmas tree for their room this year. They were so excited.
Last year we did a "real" tree for the upstairs game room, I may still sneak one in..some in the house feel they have deathly allergies to real trees, but they did fine last year! I'm planning on having a real tree for my main tree next year,(I'll keep the fake one as a back up, in case I need to chunk the real one, you know in case someone dies of allergies, LOL!! okay, I am really amusing myself here, J does NOT think I am funny, he says "is that necessary?" - I say "it's my blog I can write what I want :) ) -I just love real trees - these fake ones stink! When I was little we would go pick our tree out & that was so fun! It's been 10yrs, we can try a real tree, right? See how it goes? I'm not mean, I won't make anyone suffer, I hate allergies too! -J says "you need to make it CLEAR that our real tree was only 3ft tall" & he keeps saying "C is a liar, C is a liar" - now that's mean! (yes, we are very childish- in case you were wondering)
ANYHOW..back to the fake trees- We had a lot of fun picking out ornaments and then putting it all together and lighting them up! It is cute to see them sleeping in their beds, in the glow of their tree lights :)
This is our Gingerbread house. Ever since I was little I longed to do a gingerbread house. I remember going to my Aunt Julie's house around Christmas and there would be a gingerbread house that they were working on, I thought it was so great! So, as an adult, I decided to start this tradition w/ my kids. They love it and so do I. We had such a wonderful time this year decorating and eating candy and icing while doing it! It turned out to be a great team effort and I think it is our best one yet! This is our 4th year to do it. All the kids had such great ideas and now we can admire it until New Years Day - that's when I let them eat it..which I think is kinda gross- but J & them have done it since the first year so whatever! Eat away that hard stuff that has been sitting out for weeks :) !! I'm a chocolate kinda gal!
