Christmas Fun

We've had such a fun time making Christmas preparations! Here is a hodge podge of things we have done recently. One highlight is the gingerbread house decorating party that our daughter goes to each December at her best friend's house. This is her 2007 gingerbread house:
Here is our son C with his newly knitted stocking from Aunt Lois! Thank you Aunt Lois!!
Our daughter had a mini piano recital this month. For a Christmas gift for her teacher she composed an original piece of music which she titled, "Quiet Thoughts". This picture was taken moments after giving the gift, and her teacher immediately sat down at the grand piano to play it. Wonderful!


Son L helped me stamp gift tags.


And of course, baking and decorating Christmas cookies!!!


I showed L and C how to level off the contents of measuring spoons and measuring cups to have accurate amounts, and they took this job very seriously.

Pam, I like how your kitchen is not picture perfect - much like mine! We enjoy cooking and have been baking cookies at our house lately too - gingerbread and peanut butter.
