Gingerbread House and Holiday Cookies, so many Decorating Decisions?

My parents have 10 grandkids and this holiday was the first time they had all of them together.  We had an early celebration on friday and even had professional photos taken.  This months cover will be a photo of them with their 10 grandkids.  Can't wait to share soon!  After the photo shoot, I took my niece and my kids over to my in-laws and the kids made a Gingerbread house and we made 12 dozen cookies for a cookie exchange.  There are so many choices when it comes to creating your Gingerbread House masterpiece.  How do you decide?  With the cookies we made a mix of cookies, and each one was so different and delicious.  It made for a wonderful afternoon and evening with family!  Heartfelt memories for my kids and for me!  That's my favorite part of the Holiday season.


Building the Gingerbread House, so many steps.









Cousins enjoy the finished results!

How do you Decorate Your Christmas Tree? WW entry

There are so many ways to decorate a Christmas tree. A simple design with just a few colors or a mixture of family ornaments that have been passed down from generation to generation.  A few days after Thanksgiving my daughter begged us to put up the Christmas tree.  She had so much fun looking at all the cute and pretty ornaments that we have collected over the years.  I enjoyed watching her Holiday excitement. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?   Here are some ideas on decorating your Christmas tree for the holidays on Pinterest and a search on Google.

Kids were so happy to have decorated our Christmas Tree!


Lastly, since it's National Cookie Day, I found this awesome recipe via Pinterest!  Yummy!


Have an amazing week.  If you participate in Wordless Wednesday, please be sure to leave your blog link, looking forward to reading your posts.  Also, only 10 days left on the Starbucks Giveaway:)
