Gingerbread House 2009

Our yearly tradition of decorating a gingerbread house took place yesterday. The house turned out beautifully and as you can see from the crazed looks on the girls' faces, they enjoyed eating the candy as much as putting it on the house. Needless to say, the gingerbread house rests on the very tiptop of the bookshelf - out of little hands' reach!

Santa and his elves

The girls went to see Santa today. Julia asked for art and Emma said she didn't know what she wanted yet. The candy canes were the highlight, of course!

Little Drummer Girl

Here is a clip from Julia's first concert with her drum group. She was great - love the smile she is trying to hide.
