It's been quite a month already. We started out the first Saturday with Kate and Megan at a dance lcinic. They loved it and had a great time. they even came home and taught the dance to Carli. Now that was a riot. We'll have to get video of that! It was sooo funny to see Carli trying to do what her big sisters were doing.
Of course, on Dec. 1 we started our advent calenders. We make this one every year:
I made 4 strands of kisses this year so there is one for each child and we're not fighting over them every day. They love having their own. Each strand is 24 Hershey's kisses wrapped in celophane and a ribbon between each one. Next we attempted our first gingerbread house. It was quite the experience. Here's me holding it together while it dries.
Here's the pretty much finished product. 
It lasted about 5 minutes and then started to crumble. :) We didn't wait for it to dry long enough before starting to load the candy on to decorate it. The kids were glad to be able to eat it right away, though! Next year we'll do better.
