Christmas Crafts

We headed over to the Tilson's house tonight to do some Christmas crafts with Me-Mommy since Gabe & Lyndon were in Mexico.  Mom had a bunch of fun stuff for the girls to do including making a beaded candy cane, a clothespin Rudolph, a jingle bell necklace & decorating a foam Christmas tree ornament (all things I think I did when I was a kid).  She was making some with her kids at school and brought stuff home to share with all of us.

Ava, Me-Mommy & Lexie making the beaded candy canes (I loved that all 3 girls understood the red/white pattern and could pretty much do these themself)
 Next up, Mom had baked a bunch of sugar/gingerbread cookies. This was the crowd pleaser for sure.  Not only did the girls decorate them but Darren, Mom & I also got to have fun too.  It was fun seeing the difference in what all the girls did with theirs.
 Some of the finished cookies.
 Check out the A&M gingerbread man that Darren made...he made sure to leave it as a special treat for Gabe & LT.
 While Mom & I cleaned up, Darren spent sometime chillin' with the girls.
 And finally, all the girls snuggled up with Me-Mommy to watch the Grinch before it was time for us to leave.  Thanks Mom for all the good Christmas fun!!
