Since we had all the train stuff out for Christmas Dance on Saturday we decided to invite all of my family over to make cookie trains on Sunday. It was great to have everyone over, loved seeing all of the cousins hanging out. Kyle helped Isabelle make a cookie airplane this year! Pretty impressive. Great Grandma Tingey would be proud that the tradition lives on :)
Kirsten and Taylor were new to the tradition and they both jumped right in and made really awesome trains. Good ideas for next year.
Oh and Morgan sent us a Christmas package! We were finally all together, well, Dad, Ethan, Ana and I were finally together last night and so we opened it. She sent shells for everyone and all of her favorite treats that she has found in New Zealand! Yummy.
Just thought I'd throw in some Monday pictures. Most of the party is cleaned up, one table remains and I think I'm going to put Tricia's other ginger bread house together today after I finish my scripture reading. It also started to snow last night and we have a few inches on the ground. I shoveled the driveway after Pilates this morning because it was still snowing when I got home. Of course it stopped as soon as I finished up, hahaha. Good to get a jump on those things, I don't like the ice build up. Also I found that if you clear the leaves from the gutter drain the water flows nicely off the top of the driveway. Good thing to remember to watch for with our new home. Last pictures are of Ethan's cookie Tardis and Ana's awesome cookie car. Got some creative minds.
