Caramel Apples.Gingerbread Houses. LIGHTS!

My friend Scrappy made these awesome Caramel Apples for Taylor's teacher for Christmas...don't they look divine?! (Dale doesn't know yet, but I ordered some for him for Christmas too...I know the way to my man's heart!)

This week at Alphabet Club Maddie made a Gingerbread House...with the help of her Mom.

I loved how she was so very careful with every piece of candy she put on.

The complete Gingerbread house.

We took our 2nd annual trip down to a little town called Chickasha, to look at the Lights. This year wasn't as cold as last year, so we enjoyed walking around and letting the kids play on the play ground. This picture doesn't give the lights justice...there is a big lighted bridge over the pond, with ducks. Maddie wanted to feed them, but then got scared when they came right up to us for bread.

Wow...can you believe it...Taylor didn't run when I asked to smile for the camera! Did you notice Taylor is sporting a new smile...he finally got his front tooth in! Now if the other one would fall out..it's been loose for a few weeks now.

Isn't she the best poser?

This tree is amazing. On our way home from Chickasha, we stopped in this neighborhood in OKC to see this tree again. Dale wants to head out again tonight to go look at more lights...the kid, I mean man, can't get enough! Hope you are all enjoying your holiday...and looking forward to 3 weeks of no school...(big sigh!)

I had forgotten about that last tree. It is like daylight at that house. I am sure the neighbors love it. ;) Thanks for the reminder, we will have to go there next week.
I am glad to see that you got Maddie to wear that hat again. She is adorable!

I can't believe how perfect Maddie's gingerbread house is! Rachel's, even in 3rd grade, didn't look that good. Wow, that last picture is absolutely stunning! Who would spend that much time decorating?

Sterling and I went to see the lights a couple of years ago with the Brammers and it was so beautiful! I love all your pictures, especially the one of Dale and Maddie. So cute!
