I am a wife and a mother who loves the Lord and my family. I have been blessed with a very sweet husband and three sweet girls. Rose is 5, Pearl is 3 and Violet our baby was born in June. Our three miracle babies are answered prayers. We hold them tightly remembering their seven siblings (lost during early pregnancy) that we never got to hold. Before I was a mother I was an Elementary teacher and I have discovered that I don't know half as much as I thought I did and that it is much harder to parent 2 or 3 children then to teach a whole class of children. God is using my children (some more then others haha) to teach me patience and mold me into His image. The journey is fun, crazy and full of hills and valleys but this is my family and I love it.
This is a tradition we started when Rose was two and the girls love to create and then nibble on their houses.
Violet didn't participate in making Gingerbread houses but we dressed her like a little Gingerbread baby and she is sweet enough to just gobble right up!
G's kindergarten class did it this year and it was fun. They just took little milk cartons and glued on graham crackers with the icing we made. Then decorated it with candy. Our neighbor invited us over and he had made the houses and put them together for them to decorate. He used the roll out dough. Did you do that too?

I can't believe how big Violet is! WOW! She is so adorable. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
I Love all my gingerbread girls. What fun memories they'll have. The gingerbread baby takes the cake. I could really take a nibble out of her!
