Gingerbread houses...sort of :-)

On Sunday, we went to the Davenport Hotel downtown and looked at their amazing gingerbread houses.  The theme this year was Disney, I believe, and there were some crazy ones.  The rule is that everything you see has to be edible...to someone anyways :-)  it was a lot of fun, though we missed them working on them by like 5 seconds..the finishing bell had just rung when we walked in..maybe next year we will go a little earlier.

Memories

Making Christmas light memories with Daddy!

She is always so helpful and happy, despite it being dark and cold out there!

Her new favorite pastime, playing under her blanket :-) The walking under the blanket gets a little dangerous!

Decorating an ornament that she got in Sunday School, very serious about it :-)

Advent

Finished product of our new advent calendar! Thanks Aunt Shirley for your wonderful craft stuff and Bethany for helping make it look...whimsical?? :-)

Megan LOVES taking the box down to get the candy and so far has listened really well to the advent story! Thanks Mom, for sending it in square form!

But...this is the favorite of the season, she has spent more time taking off and putting on these window stickers than I have ever seen her do anything else!!  Can you think of a place to get year around ones??
