This week I'm thankful for a little extra family time.
Claudio's had the week off so we've had every evening to spend as a family.
One of our activities this week was to decorate a gingerbread house
The boys enjoyed the decorating but I think they liked the eating of candy and icing more :)
and with all this free time Claudio has also been able to do a little of this
Yay! I'm so thankful my house is finally being painted!
Linking up with Emily, Carina, Sarah and Cassie
That gingerbread house is so cute!
ReplyDeleteNice color.
ReplyDeleteWe have done a gingerbread house or two. It tried making my own gingerbread one year. It collapsed under its own weight. What a disaster.=) I haven't attempted one again. But since we still have a fnm visiting, it may be all for the best. Maybe next year.=)
Ohhh, so glad you all got some great family time. Building a gingerbread house has always been on my holiday to do list but it hasn't happened yet :( Yours turned out cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute gingerbread house!
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful memories your children will cherish! I remember every year growing up my Daddy made a gingerbread house with my sister & I :)

I think I was a little late to the party today... spent all morning at school with my kids. Your gingerbread house is amazing... last year me and the kids made one and it was literally falling apart... had to be condemned... and eaten. In other news, I awarded you a Liebster award over at my blog... www.onepartjoyonepartcircus.com... You are fabulous!
