A few Christmas-time photos!
Baking Gingerbread cookies!
Aren’t their aprons so cute? I found them at Kohls on sale for $11.99 each, plus I had a 30% off coupon too! Great deal, huh? (They are reversible, too–with a cute cupcake pattern on the other side).
My girls absolutely love to bake!
My sweet girls in front of the Christmas tree! They were being so silly.
More photos to come soon!
Decorating the Tree
The girls love decorating the tree, and it is so much fun to do this with them. We always do this all together as a family!
Here are a few photos that I wanted to share….(although a little later than I wanted to)
Merry Christmas!
Gingerbread Fun!
We make Gingerbread houses every year! The girls (and Jace & I) love to do this! I actually have a template & recipe to create my own, but I figured making 2, and chilling time (of the dough) etc….it would be a slightly longer process. So I figured I would just buy them–especially since I wanted 2 kits, and they were on sale.
We still plan on making our homemade one, though!
Here are a few pics of the fun we had!
This has become one of our traditions that the girls really look forward to!
Ornament Christmas Tree
I first saw this done by Dominique at Dollar Designs. She makes everything look so easy…LOL!
I added a few little fuzzy balls around my tree, too….just to add that something extra. I didn’t put anything on top, but that may change!
She has some videos on her site of other craft ideas as well. Be sure to check them out,too. Have fun!
Ornament Wreath

Isn’t this the neatest thing!? I’ve seen these before and thought that they looked so elegant. This year I wanted to try it myself, so I did! This one is mine! I just love traditional Christmas colors, and I love how it turned out. It was really easy, too! I know that there are a couple of different ways to do these. I used the “hanger method”. Thank you Pinterest for giving me great ideas…LOL! Here’s the link to the directions if you’d like to make one for yourself.
