"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Gingerbread House!!

If you have never made a gingerbread house you really should try it!! We had so much fun making a gingerbread house with the girls. This is something they will remember forever, and Daddy even had fun helping us. What a fun Christmas activity!!!

That is such a fun tradition to start. Plus what is not to love about decorating with candy!

How fun! I love making gingerbread houses. We may have to do it! I also want to go to Bear Lake again this year, that was a blast, and just fun to get away.

We have done this for years! We started the year we got married. It is so much fun! We just use graham crackers, but still so much fun!

I'm glad you commented on my blog! I keep forgetting to check up on yours. I love the little houses. That really is a fun thing to do. We might decorate gingerbread men today. That should be fun, too! In answer to your question, my due date should be about June 18th. I haven't been to the doctor yet, though, so we'll see if they tell me different. It's good to hear you say three is easier than two, because I'm getting a whole lot of the opposite kind of "encouragement!"

What a fun activity - I'm definitely doing it with my girls. Your "sock monster" was adorable - My "baby" put one on her head and ran straight into the wall. Merry Christmas!
