Christmas in Rochester

Kassie and I went to Lowes to pick out a tree. We ended up picking out a medium sized one.  Lee thought we'd come home with a small one, so he was a bit surprised.  JD did ok with the ornaments.  We put the Christmas decoration buckets in front of the tree to block little hands.  Actually, Samantha was probably worst with stealing ornaments.  She thought they were prefect little toys to play with. 

We made gingerbread houses.  I got a special recipe for the icing that was pretty good.   

 Lee of course made a three story house with a basement with no problems. 

 Tommy wanted his perfect which didn't happen.

 Kassie made a non-traditional ginger bread house.  She thought she did a pretty snazzy job.

Samantha ate most of her supplies but did manage to build a small house. 

Christmas stockings made by my grandma and aunt.

Christmas dinner 

Christmas morning there was lots of snow on the ground, surprise! (We weren't really surprised.)

I made cinnamon rolls the fast easy way.  I bought frozen dough and let it rise over night.  I totally cheated!  They were yummy!
