Yay for the Holidays! It's getting harder and harder for the entire family to make get together for any occasion these days. So it's really exciting when we get to see our cousins during the holidays! Jim, Rachel and their 3 little girls, Bailee, Olivia & Kate came all the way from N.Y. to hang out with us for Thanksgiving. We had so much fun at Papa & Nana's house. Thanks for all the super yummy food Nana!!!

The girls all took turns holding "their baby Mona". so cute!

GINGERBREAD PEOPLE

Your never to old to decorate gingerbread men! The boys love to help make anything in the kitchen but most especially cookies of course. They each get their own bowl and spoon and help measure and mix ingredients. We won't talk about the flour that ended up all over ever inch of the kitchen, or the sprinkles I was finding in drawers for a week. No matter, we all had a blast. It took about 4 cookies before I realized that Jack was eating them faster than he could decorate them! Britton spent so much time on his basketball man that he wouldn't let anyone eat it. It sat in the cupboard for 2 weeks!

Nolan is so funny. He came into my room with a robot mask on and I said "Hi robot, where's Nolan?" He said " I don't know, i think he's hiding." M~ " well when you see him, tell him he can have a cookie." N~ quickly throws off the mask and says " Mommy, it's me, Nolan!" M~ "Oh, I thought you were a robot?" N~ adamantly pointing to his eyes, " Mommy! Look in my eyes... it's me Nolan!"
