Christmastime

Bing Crosby is playing "Christmas Dinner Country Style" 

in my head. Right now.

Soooooo.......

Quilt for kid #1 is done!!

And kid #2's

I am actually pretty pleased with how these turned out, and 

I really think the kids will like them.

At our house, we try to make a gingerbread house every year together.

But, since about half of the family has to eat gluten-free, 

we weren't sure what to do this year, because

half the fun of making is eating.

SO! We made our own gingerbread, gluten-free style. 

We got a template from some lady online,

for mini house though. So this morning, for like, an hour and a half,

I was cutting out gingerbread house pieces for 6 gingerbread 

houses, and a small army of men to occupy them.

TA-DA!

And that is what the table looked like after I had started

cleaning the table off.

So just multiply that mess by about 4.

But we got some nice houses!!!

Mom's house

My older sis-she had help from the littlest kiddo :)

My house

Kid #1-so proud of the tree

Kid #2-yes, that's a giant gingerbread man.

Kid #3 as much candy crammed onto one house as possible? check.
