Tonight we went to a parade. Everything in the parade was decorated with lights!
The kids loved it, even though we were a little cold.




I was in a hurry to complete some Thanksgiving desserts, and somehow, while carrying the bag of sugar from the cupboard to the counter, the bag tore and sugar spilled all over the floor. It was a large 10lb bag! Sydney thought it was exciting and wanted to play in the sugar. Tyson thought I should be in trouble and go to time out. I thought it was a big waste.

Gingerbread Houses!

We decorated gingerbread houses at grandma's house again this year. Last year Sydney got tired of decorating before the house was finished, so this year I decided to make the houses smaller. It turned out to be the perfect size. Sydney decoraded hers all by herself. Tyson didn't do anything at all. Grandma ended up decorating his house.

Erica was there with her kids, and she had for a house for each of them. She told be earlier over the phone that she had gotten out of control and made her houses too big, but I was still surprised when I saw Ellie's house. It was almost 2 feet tall! I didn't have my camera, otherwise I would include a picture.
