More Pre-Christmas stuff

We love to make Gingerbread houses. Minus the Gingerbread. One year I slaved and worked really hard to make the ginger bread. No one ate it and it was not very exciting. So I just go the easy way now and everyone is happy. Graham crackers are perfect for this.  (plus I always do this for my webelos and I just make more for my own kids and it works out perfectly). 

Workin hard.

So proud

Alex made a "tornado blizzard" so his stuff was crazy and all over.

Jaxon was half-hearted about his. (something about growing up)

He just liked eating the frosting.

Tanner was- as usual- very meticulous and put lots and lots on to make his house very candyful.

As promised- Pictures of Alex's basketball game. But it was hard to get pictures. I will try for better ones another time.

He has a lot of fun.

Chase will not sleep in. He is told a million times not to wake up until 7:00. But he always gets in bed with me anytime between 6 and 7. He has become such a great reader. So now he brings his book with him and gets lots of reading time in. He is a reading machine lately.

We were so excited to see our cousins a few days before Christmas. 

Here is a picture with them-of Grandpa giving away some of his comic books.

Alex loved their new puppy Felix.

Chase was telling Grandpa all about the Minecraft Characters on his shirt. 

We love these boys.

Alex had a piano recital. He did so well. 

He really loves to play and loved learning Christmas songs this year.

Now we are finally ready for Christmas.....
