Gingerbread

Our house still smells of graham crackers and icing!

This week we did another 'annual' gingerbread making party at our place for school friends.  Except this time we had a few more friends to add to the list and split our party into two days.

We had some girl school friends over one day, and the boys the next.  Boy oh boy were the two days different.  The girls were so calm and spent so much time working on their houses.  The boys were just pure crazy with icing avalanches and sprinkle snowstorms.  

We had a lot of fun and it's kind of a neat tradition I think we will carry on for a while - the kids love bringing kids home with us and it's such a fun thing to do - you can't go wrong with candy!  

I didn't get a lot of pictures - too busy keeping things in check.  I just managed a couple of the 'boys' group!

Sun River and Portland for Mid Winter Break

Drew had a conference in Sun River OR this past winter and we made the call to tag along for a little vacation.  Things were slightly dampened by the fact that it appears Cole has developed car sickness since the summer. Ugh.  The drive was so long! However, it was worth it in the end and we had a wonderful time relaxing in an amazing little chalet, enjoying the snow, sitting in the hot tub, sledding and skating!  Couldn't have asked for more fun!  A stop at our favorite in Mt. Hood - El burro loco! A glass of wine after our 6 hour road trip turned into 10 hours due to car sickness!  Right before our Owl Walk.  We were told we could walk into the wood and hear the owls. What a bust!  3 cold and tired kids in the dark woods and no owls!  It's now a running joke in our home as the  tour guide kept 'hooting' trying to draw the owl's attention.  If we want someone's attention in the house we often hoot at each other now...
