Nothing But a Garnish!

Posted under Annie, Christmas, family, Holidays, Hudson, kiddos, Winter No Comments

…That’s what we would be to Sue, the T-Rex, considering a snack for her was about 500lbs. of meat.  GG got the kids tickets to the Museum of Nature and Science this year for Christmas.  What a wonderful time we had!  Egyptian Mummies, Rocks, Gems, Animals of every kind, Astronomy, Dinosaurs, the museum had it all.  Hudson and Annie even got to collect health information on themselves and test their fitness levels.  The kids were so angry with my when we finally had to leave.

The kids got to extract some of their own cells, dye them and examine them under the microscope.


Three levels of awesomeness!

 

Thanks GG!  We have some great memories!

The Gingerbread Village

Posted under Christmas, family, Food, kiddos, Projects for the Little Guys, Winter 2 Comments

It took a village this year to make our tummies happy.  Now that the kids are getting older, they aren’t satisfied teaming up for competitions anymore.  This year we featured a house, a bakery, a chalet, a toy shop, and a gabled house. If I do say so myself, the kids managed to hold their own.

Once There Was A Snowman…

I think Annie was more impeding our efforts at the start.

She warmed up to him in the end…He never had the chance to melt though.  Annie reduced him to the mound of snow he started as, as we headed in the door for dinner.
