Christmas Traditions

My family started this tradition in the last few years, to make gingerbread houses for each small family. So we all met at my brother's new home that they just bought in November, to make our houses the Saturday following Christmas! Here are the finished products:

Our contribution, isn't it nice?

From Oma and Opa

Linc's family contribution - I have to say it did not fall down as much as the one he built last year did!Crystal's contribution - Not a house, but definetly a cool truck to park out front!

Catching up!

The last few weeks have been so awfully busy that I have neglected my blog. So, probably just for me of course, I am going to catch up.

Christmas was amazing, we stayed home in our own home for the first time since Shane and I have been married it was just our family for Christmas. A little wierd but very nice to have a chance to start our own traditions!

Here are some pics of the kid's bounty!

The Tree Christmas Eve before the Kids got to it!

Cheyenne got a leapster - which she totally loves and we love the educational value!

Mason is so in love with Football - he couldnt take his eyes off his new ball!

Cheyenne got a big girl bike from Santa - although Mason was convinced it was for him!

Cheyenne loves High School Musical and got some great stuff!

Thank you to all that sent presents, these are just a few of the wonderful things the kids got! We were so happy to have such a blessed year and Christmas holiday! Thank you to all that help with that and made it so special!
