Muffin Tin Monday: Snow

Muffin Tin Monday at Her Cup Overfloweth



Top row: Big and small snowmen made from pb&j, teddy grahams building with "snow"marshmallows
Bottom row: carrot, raisins, broken pretzels for building a snowman sitting in some coconut, yogurt with snow sprinkles, pear snowflakes

Train Show

When we first walked in there was a huge display entirely made of legos! That was the coolest display and made everything else a little boring.





We also got these free cool train hats.

But my favorite train display was Hogwarts!
The kids could have cared less and wanted to go back to see the Legos again.

Vacation in a nutshell

We had so much fun visiting for Christmas, here is the highlight reel:

Making Gingerbread Houses








Christmas

Christmas morning everyone woke up early (thankfully not too early) and the first thing that every child checked? the plate of cookies. They were all amazed that Santa had actually eaten them, and drank the milk, and gave the carrots to the reindeer. Then they noticed the stockings and presents. We opened stocking while still in jammies. Logan just held onto his for awhile, not quite sure what to do with it.
We eventually got dressed and Granny Liz, Grandpa, Aunt Susan, and Uncle Steve joined us to open presents.
and of course eat!
Uncle Clark volunteered to eat with the kids.
Grandma tried to get a picture with all the grandkids but the only picture that turned out is one with just Mackenzie.
That night Clark and Robert sported their team colors and headed out for the football game.
