We decided to start a new tradition last year of making gingerbread houses. The construction begins after the Thanksgiving feast. As you can see, Katie was quite involved in this years house. She and Todd had a great time throwing candy at the roof and watching it stick. AHHH, the days of perfect Necco roofs are over. She also thought it was extremely important to lick each piece of candy as it was added to the house.
Katie gives us her best cheeser while preparing to throw more candy at the roof
The final product.
And....a family picture to top it off. I realized today as I was looking for a picture to send in our Christmas card that this is the one and only of all three of us for the entire year. I can't believe how pathetic that is. I guess it's off to the park on Saturday to add a few more to choose from!

Love the gingerbread house! We had so much fun making ours for FHE (thanks Aunt Sue.) I actually like the "lick it and throw it on" technique - we didn't think of that! About the family picture situation - that is our problem this year. I think it has something to do with the fact that Tim hates when I pull the camera out. I may have to cut and paste our heads onto three random bodies. A trip to the park may be our solution as well. Call me if you come to Ogden - I'd be happy to snap some shots! By the way, so sorry I haven't called you - life has been crazy (I'll explain later.) Enough from me. Hope you guys are doing great. Tell that baby to hang in there for another month! Love you guys.
We just got your christmas card. SO CUTE!!! We are so glad that you guys have a blog. Isn't it so fun. We are excited to see you in a few weeks.
See you soon!!
