2013 Gingerbread Houses

We made extra sure to have a perfect Christmas Eve this year because last year Mandie was in the hospital and we didn't get to do the daytime stuff.  

Our Christmas Eve Traditions:
Make cookies and deliver them to our favorite friends
Make Gingerbread houses
Have a "shepherd's dinner" (fruit, meat, cheese, bread, crackers)
Watch 'Elf' or 'The Santa Claus'
Read the Christmas story
Open 1 present each, singing a carol in between each one
The kids all sleep in one room

This year's gingerbread houses were super fabulous:
A little gingerbread village

Natalie's



Amanda's-- notice the chimney

Jessica's-- "gummy bears going to the gummy bear ball"

Melissa's frog castle-- notice the frog on the throne with a crown


Josh's gingerbread rocket
