For the month of December, Caleb decided to "plan" out the month and do something Christmassy each night. Our calendar has consisted of Christmas movie nights, game nights, plays, symphony, decorating, shopping for gifts, gingerbread houses, and so much more. We are half way through the month and here are a few pics from our evenings.
At the first of the month, we decorated our home with all the Christmas decor.

This nativity was from my grandparents and it brings back great memories every year we put it up. |

The kids with their favorite ornament |
|
The 3 of them were just all sitting around the ornaments talking about each one and the memories they had. It was pretty cute. |
|
Dad putting up the angel |
|
Trenton was very particular about where each ornament was hung. |
|
Gavin kept getting irritated because his ornaments would fall off. |
|
While decorating, we enjoyed some egg nog. Addison enjoyed it a little too much. It ended up all over her face and she loved it! |
At the first of December the grandkids did gingerbread houses with my mom. We had purchased a kit from Costco and so we did a family gingerbread house later that week.
|
Addison helped by eating, and eating, and eating. |
|
Gavin showed her how! |
|
Trenton and Dad were the engineers and did a great job assembling everything. They both were very precise! |
|
We did suffer one casuality. The poor gingerbread men were attacked by the big bad Addison. |
|
The finished product. |
