Christmas Preparations

We have been busy getting everything ready for Christmas!  Cara and Mummy each made a star for the tree.  Last year's Christmas cards made 2 great stars to top the tree!
Completed tree 2011.
Cara loves crafting these days.  Cutting and taping are her favourites.
Gwen is walking walking and walking.  She sleeps when not walking then wakes up and walks some more!  
Our Gingerbread creation for 2011.  Grampy made the walls and roof and Cara and Mummy and Daddy built it and decorated it. Cara did most of the roof by her self and she thought of making a snowman.  She also tasted all of the candies.
Cara had her last class of preschool this week.  Now she is on break until January.  They had a little performance and some treats after class for the parents.  We were asked to bring a birthday cake for Jesus so Cara helped decorate!  Look at the bottom of this post for a cute video of part of her performance!
Friday Cara and Nana baked and decorated some cookies!
They had a great time!
Gwen and Howie had a great time too!
Cara and her Blue Christmas jello jigglers!
We got some fresh snow this weekend and we got the sled out to show Gwen the fun of playing in snow.  Daddy raced them up and down the yard over and over and they laughed and laughed!  
Gwen loves the snow!
Here is Cara and Leah singing about meatballs and sneezing!  At the end Cara says "I sneezed inside my meatball!"

  1. Is it possibly to enjoy Christmas preparations too much? Of course not! These photos prove it! Stars (2!) on the tree, cutting and pasting, assembling the Ginger Bread House and decorating it, baking Christmas cookies and there is Gwen walking around checking that everything is ready for Santa's arrival! What fun! -- Grampy
