Gingerbread House 2011

Thanks to Facebook suggestions last year, I purchased the pre-built G'bread house, ready for decorating. I also accepted that the decorating process makes my type A personality go batty so I did laundry while Aaron and the kids went to work!

All Waylon Wants for Christmas are His Two Front Teeth!

In late November, Waylon lost one of his front teeth (his third one to go).  We've been waiting for these teeth to fall out for a long time (since the summer!), but instead of being relieved, the race was on for the other front tooth to fall out...just in time for Christmas!

Adios to the first tooth, which slipped out of Aaron hand, and was never seen again.  Luckily the Tooth Fairy accepts notes in lieu of teeth.
 The second front tooth was so loose that it turned into a snaggle tooth, but Waylon refused to wiggle it very much, and he would not allow me to do the string around the door handle trick.
Finally!  Both teeth fell out...just in time for Christmas (an another lower tooth just for good measure).

Grandma Josephine's Birthday

We finished out Thanksgiving weekend celebrating Grandma Josephine's birthday.  The kids picked out jewelry for her gift, and we all had a delicious dinner and homemade apple pie.  It was a wonderful evening with family, finishing off a great weekend.
