Playing post-Gingerbread house assembly

the gingerbread house

Sierra and Heidi came over to help us build our gingerbread house. Cassia didn't help with the assembly but ddi enjoy part of the roof. 

Gingerbread train

The three of us went to Heidi and Sierras last night and made a gingerbread train. Liam and Sierra decorated and then decorated cookies. Sierra made a cookie with a smile face, Liam made one with spider eyes.
Cassia had fun too. She got a sugar choke and managed to unwrap and eat half a candy cane before Heidi caught her.

 

Happy Thanksgiving, friend

We stayed home and Jerad cooked. Our friend Heidi came over with Sierra and the kids ate in Liam's room. Cassia ate at our table and had everything we did, just cut into tiny pieces (she likes turkey and pumpkin pie btw). Everything turned out pretty well, even the dogs had a good time. I gave them each a bath in the morning so they were both clean puppies.

Menu: 

• Turkey with herb salt rub
• Potatoes + cauliflower au gratin
• Balsamic carrots + parsnips
• green beans with carmelized onions and bacon
• GF stuffing

Monkey Business

We went to an indoor gym in Boise to celebrate Sierras birthday. I never even saw Liam, as he takes to playing with kid like a fish being set free in the water. Cassia had fun too, climbing and playing with Heidi.
