Our county's Christmas Parade
Friends over for a quick hot dog dinner and to play together after the parade... super fun, maybe a new tradition;)
A Gingerbread Decorating party at church for the kids! We had lots of fun decorating and snacking! Also fun to visit with friends from church and the community:)
The final product was pretty;)
At the children's Christmas party at church someone made some chocolate chip cookies with what looked like crushed candy candies/peppermint in them. I later was told it is a new seasonal pre-made cookie dough but I was inspired to see if I could make some at home;)
Sure enough... it was WAY too easy!! I used our favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and added one crushed up candy cane.
Onto more Christmas;) Looking forward to a few more opportunities this week to meet with friends, sing Christmas carols and even some crafts;) Sneaking in some math and reading lessons and one more chapter in history before we call it Christmas Break:)

| A true farming county parade definitely includes HUGE tractors! |

| All the commotion had Nate's full attention. |

| Chris and Lydia freezing on the float... Chris later told me that I didn't INSIST enough that he wear gloves! They had a blast though and made plans to ride on the float again:) |

So fun! You are so brave to have everyone eating on your new carpet. Good move with the blanket though.
Chris does look pretty cold there. I bet he will wear gloves the next time you tell him to :)
Fun! i took my kiddos to our town's parade too, and they loved it!
