The weeks are getting quite busy now and I have lots to share from our week!
Every year we celebrate the day we got our house, December 15 – 8 years ago now- by having “Family Day”. We have a special meal complete with sparking grape juice. Then after dinner we decorate our Gingerbread Houses together. The kids really look forward to this day and is a fun tradition that I hope they will remember forever.

It definitely seems like you guys had a full week of family fun. I absolutely love puppet shows. I'm sure the kids were happy with all of the candy they had to add to their Gingerbread Village. I've always wanted to make a gingerbread house. I really have to try it one time. Was it pretty easy to do with the kids? Your village looks great. 🙂
