We all watched the kids play in the backyard. The favorite game right now is ...GOLF! Grandpa has little miniature golf clubs and whiffle balls for the kids to hit. The trampoline runs a close second. Here is Larkie's house.
Simona had her first experience with Gingerbread houses. She and Will graciously allowed the Cobb crew to finish this house....Sonia chose a sleigh and reindeer and the kids were so disappointed to not have a house. Simona took hers home and Grandma is busy today making a new house for the Cobbies! They can decorate it for FHE.
Almost finished.....
Dan chose the biggest house and put Andes mints for roof tiles...YUMMY...I will be heading over there for snacks. He took me to the SWEETIES candy store on Alma School. WOW! is all I can say to THAT store. Amazing warehouse FULL of every kind of candy imaginable. They even had a PEZ section. I had seen the collector's edition of Snow White and the seven dwarfs in New York for 30 dollars. I found it here for 20 at Bed, B and Beyond. SWEETIES had it too....same price. Hooray! The kids love to search for the dispensers around the house and when they find them ...they get the candy inside!!! I want to be a kid again. Grandpa and Grandma still have one more surprise up their sleeves with some candy from Denmark to be shared on Christmas Eve.
Here is the Christmas Cottage pattern....almost done. My favorite pattern so far....We sure did enjoy the Spinato's pizza. Another favorite for all of us...thanks to Dan for the tip-off on the best pizza in town.
