Fun night at home

Ella could hardly wait for Daddy to get home from work last night. She had made us a special Christmas present at preschool and she was anxious for us to open it up! First, there was a very sweet handmade card...

And the gift was a very pretty Christmas charger decorated by Ella. It even has her Santa handprint in the middle! We love it!

I let Ella pick what we had for dinner, and, no surprises here, she picked her favorite spaghetti dinner, complete with sparkling cider...

Cade loves his spaghetti, too!

And after dinner was cleaned up, we brought out our gingerbread house. Yay!

Ella took her sweet, little time...

while Cade globbed it on...

Having fun, E?

Cade worked hard to get the candy to actually stick...

And every time it did, he threw his hands up over his head and said, "I did it!"

Adding the finishing touches...

Ta-da! Our beautiful gingerbread house...

Nice work, you two!
