It's been very busy around here lately. Here's a small sampling of what's been going on.
For an Advent calender activity I thought it would be fun to camp in the living room. Jer took this idea and ran with it- "let's camp outside." So he set up a tent in he backyard. The girls loved it. They played in the tent all day. Then night time came with temperatures in the 30s... didn't happen. By the way where was I you ask? Inside the house in front of the fireplace with blankets ready to hand out when the campers came in.
We made a gingerbread house one day with one slight flaw- we should have hired a better roofer.
It's all good. We turned our gingerbread house into gingerbread teepees.
The kids have been playing a lot of dress up now that they are off of school for 2 weeks. Yesterday Victoria came down the stairs in her Daddy's old suit stating that she was King Daddy. Bella came down next as the Queen. They have been changing into different costumes at least 3 times a day.
Today Renae, Caleb, Chloe, Keira, and Carol came by our house. I got to play art teacher again. We made clay angels. They turned out cute. Caleb, however, didn't want to make an angel; he wanted a Mario guy (from the video game). So his Mom helped make his. Victoria's is the lower left angel and Bella's angel is right above hers. Chloe's angel is the bottom right, and Keira's angel is above hers (helped with Grandma's loving hands.) Afterward we played a game of Creationary- it's a Lego game where you make things and other people try to guess what you made. We had a lot of fun!
