Busy day!

It's been a busy day today! The kids are very excited to be on Christmas Vacation! It is cold outside, so we stayed busy inside today.

 

 Kaci (with a little help from Bailey) completed this beautiful stepping stone for PaPa to put in his garden where Baby is buried. Last year, Mom and Dad had to put their sweet dog, Sissy to sleep just around the same time. The kids made a stone for him then -- that he used to mark her grave.

 This is going to look very nice next to Sissy's stone. I think Baby and PaPa are both going to love it.

It is drying for now- and we will surprise PaPa with it on Christmas Day!

Kaci also worked on making more spicy pretzels for everyone to enjoy on Christmas Day!

 Then the kids started baking sugar cookies!- but not just the regular, old drop cookies....

 They busted out the flour, rolling pins and cookie cutters! YUMMO!

This evening - we went over to Mom and Dad's house - so that we could all drive around and look at Christmas lights. We didn't have to go very far to find the best house in the whole neighborhood! PaPa did a great job this year with his lights. Way to go...looking good! If you look close you can see, Grandma Dee, PaPa, Bailey and Kaci!
