We love Christmas!

Whew - December was a busy month (that's why I'm finally getting around to updating the blog in January!)! Among the Christmas shopping, parties, school stuff, etc., we still took time to partake in one of Sean's favorite family Christmas traditions: decorating a gingerbread house. We got a better one this year that already included pre-made frosting and had a handy plastic base to hold the house in place. Sean did an awesome job at decorating and eating the candy too. Actually, he kept eating the frosting which was pure sugar! Ryan was excited to help too, but he just kept saying "andy" (his word for candy) and just kept eating the candy. He would even take the candy off the house as we decorated it!


The boys have also enjoyed watching Christmas movies - their favorite was the old Christmas classics - Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Cute story - the boys and I were waiting at the post office a couple of weeks ago and the man said "Merry Christmas", "Happy Holidays", "Season's Greetings", "whatever you like" and Sean looks at him and says "No, we say Merry Christmas"! It was so cute because he said it so serious!
