Gingerbread House Fun!!!

Alrighty...moving right along to Christmas fun! Brent and Grisham decorated a gingerbread house at school and built a bigger one at home.

It was too funny seeing them work together...especially at school. Brent was wanting it to look good, and Grisham was just wanting to eat the candy!!! Too funny! Then, when we started to do ours at home, the roof fell in, and Grisham was very upset by this. He didn't even want to see the side of the house where the roof was broken!

Working Hard

I want to eat this tootsie roll!!

And now for our creation we built at home.........
The big hole in the roof!! :)

Look at that concentration! :)

I don't want it on my fingers!!
Telling us what he's doing.

Discussing what to do next
This is fun :)

Deep concentration like Daddy

The finished product!!! Yay!

So....it's been a while! :)

I apologize for the lack of updates. :) After we got back from the Grand Canyon....life got really busy. I know, no excuse, right? ;) So...needless to say, I have tons of pictures to update everyone on our big boy. I have to call him that now, because over the Christmas break....he decided he wanted to start using the potty!! Praise God....that has been one of our major challenges with him....but once he decided to do it, he did.


For Halloween, he decided he wanted to be a cowboy. So, we took him to Cowboy Corner to pick out his clothes. Believe it or not, he chose the purple shirt. :)

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving...spending time with family and friends. While at Nana and Tata's house, I decided to take some pictures of him at the barn....so below, you'll find some of my favorites. Because of the amount of pictures I have, the Christmas update will be the next blog...that I'm going to post right after this one. Can you tell that some people have been asking about my reasons for not updating??? ;) I hope they are happy today...because you will all be getting at least 3 updates in one day!!! :)
LOVE those EYES!!!
Looks like he's up to something:)




One last thing....I can't talk about Thanksgiving break without talking about the Egg Bowl. :) My cuz Lauren, great friend, Mary and I went. Needless to say....Lauren and I were VERY happy with the outcome!! :) Sorry, Mary! ;) We still love ya! Hotty Toddy!! Go Rebels!!
