kai says his favorite moment during the holiday was playing with uncle andy's lionel train set - hmmm, no surprise there! zaiah says her favorite part of the holiday was getting a baby house (doll house). daddy's was playing games (yes, that was definitely a theme this year: family games) and aunt sally's pies (she does make the best around). my favorite part was seeing snow in north carolina and watching kai run on uncle andy's tread mill. seriously, i wish i had a video of it. and, of course, spending time with family. it really was a joyful holiday.
so, here are some moments at our house.
our attempt at an easy variation of gingerbread houses ..... with graham crackers. not so successful. but the kids had fun anyway, i think. honestly, i've never had much success with gingerbread houses. they always tend to lean, or fall. not sure what the tricks are to the beautiful ones i see on display and in magazines.
what would a christmas holiday be without gingerbread cookies.
notice zaiah in the below photo licking all the toppings off her mat.
the night before christmas:
the cats are surely enjoying the chairs from aunt lizzie.
next post (soon) to be our NC and SC photos from the holiday.
happy happy new year!
