The girls and I decided to make a list of things that we wanted to do over Christmas Break. The list consisted of:
1. Decorate cookies.
2. Stay home and play dolls.
3. Make gingerbread houses.
4. Make a craft at home.
5. Go sledding.
6. Get fingernails and toenails done at the Penthouse.
7. Spend time with each of Mom's girls.
8. Play family game.
9. Do puzzles.
10. Go rollerskating.
We managed to get the whole list done!!! It was lots of fun to be able to spend so much time with the girls. There was no correcting, no lesson planning, no schoolwork at all; I loved it! I forgot to snap photos of everything, but here are a few...

| Abbie's gingerbread house took about 2 1/2 hours to make. Each candy was placed with purpose in a pattern of some kind and had to be put just so....is she more like mom or dad?? |

| Rylee's gingerbread house took about 20 minutes. She enjoyed eating the candy and frosting more than actually decorating it. She was happy to have me do a lot of the suggesting and decorating...hmmm, is she more like mom or dad? |

| Abbie did a great job rolling out the sugar cookie dough and using the cookie cutters. Do you notice the Halloween cutters mixed in with the Santa and angel cookie cutters? Rylee didn't think we should just do Christmas cookies...why not celebrate Halloween now too?? |
