Snowmaggedon and gingerbread houses...

The snow was a lot more picturesque before I remembered that with Chris out of town, I was going to have to shovel it.


I know, 2 inches wasn't exactly Snowmaggedon, but it was annoying until my neighbor informed me that 7 year olds can shovel. So then I just enslaved her son and mine.





We made gingerbread houses out of graham crackers yesterday. Everyone wanted to have their own this year, and I'm too cheap to buy 3 kits.  I love taking pictures of my living room from this angle where you can't see the junk on the floor.

    Love it. Love, love, love hard labor and being on the "skins" team for gingerbread-making. :)

    It's telling that I didn't even notice they were shirtless. We just recently graduated to requiring pants downstairs when I noticed that 90% of our home video film had boys running around in their underwear.
