Some Pics..

Today was a fun day, Ben usually has Thursday's off and today was a really fun snow day. The kids were able to play outside in the snow for most of the morning.



Our dog incredible is so crazy in the snow, he loves when the kids try and throw snow on him and he runs around like a mad man.

Bauer loved playing in the snow

Cooper tonight had his preschool Christmas program and he looked so cute I thought. He had his new little suit jacket on, a sweater and some jeans, I thought so business casual. Last year I had them wear their cute Christmas outfits and compared to the other kids they were a little over dressed. Cooper was funny when I started taking his picture he started doing this with his hand, he hand would go up and he would smile.His hand would go down and he would frown, I have NO idea where he got this, it cracked me upAfter the program Ben wanted to start the kids Gingerbread houses and a few years Ben has had a theme of his house and so this year, we all did themes, instead of just a plain ol boring house.

This is mine below and these are the before pics, I will post the after, when it is after:)

Mine is a airplane landing on a runway, just wait till it's all done it is going to be cool.



This is Alivia's hers is a castle with a princess stuck in side. She wanted a moat around it. (Marshmallow dyed blue)



Cooper wanted a space ship



Bauer didn't care so I made him a beach house over the water and the sand.



This is Ben's, a poker table. Just wait till you see who comes to play poker;)

IIf you are wondering how we do this, we just take sugar and melt it in a frying pan. Take graham crackers and dip the ends in the melted sugar and then stick them together and let the sugar get hard again.
