Charlotte's First Present
Well, we have had presents under the tree for several weeks and Charlotte has up until now just looked and touched them. Today, as we were cleaning she started tearing the wrapping paper off of her present from us. Oh no, she now knows what to do with presents. Not a present under the tree will be safe. Hopefully this gift will entertain her for a while and luckily Christmas Eve is tomorrow.
Building Gingerbread Houses
Grandma had us over for gingerbread house decorating. She invited her neighbor, Davey, as well. He is pictured with Ben. Then when the Konieczkas came to visit we demolished them with a hammer and had an extreme home make-over.

The Feast of Saint Lucy
In honor of Saint Lucy's feast day we made Mia's a wreath with candles to wear and Mia's made cinnamon rolls. We took a number of pictures and video of the many stages.
First, we had to knead the dough...
Then, we rolled out the dough and added the inside.
We rolled it back up and cut slices.
We let them rise in a warm place.

Next, we baked them in the oven.
Tada, yummy cinnamon rolls for breakfast!
Pray for us, Saint Lucy!

Our Little Sheep-eee-hoo!
Charlotte was a sheep in the nativity play.
Joe was a shepherd but I don't have any pictures of him. He looked like Linus from Charlie Brown's Christmas.
