making memories...

We decided to make a gingerbread house the other day. Its amazing there was any candy or icing left to make the house. Little Hudson entertained himself with the pots and pans. I hope everyone has a safe and merry Christmas.

just in case...

Santa was watching, they decided to help me with laundry.

and so it begins...

Parker shot his first deer Thursday. I don't think he would have been anymore excited if it was a 12 point. It was a pretty good shot for a 6 year old. No one would ever know he closes the eye he is suppose to look through the scope with. I guess his daddy practiced with him before hand. He has got the fever now! Good job Parker man.

Rockin' around the christmas tree...

My Cooper was a real trooper in his program. Needless to say, he was NOT o.k. with being the Christmas tree. He made it, although he looked like he was going to burst into tears the entire time.

this years teacher gifts...

I made these coasters for all the teachers this year and everyone seemed to love them. They were super easy and really personal... perfect!

My Hudsons Christmas outfit....

I was able to whip this up before Cooper's program today. I guess it's better than whipping it up Christmas day...like I did Thanksgiving (at 4:00 A.M.!) Oh... the things we do.

...

Wrapping up...

a few christmas orders because... it will be here before we know it!

Let it snow.....

Cooper prayed really hard Friday on the way home from school that it would snow. He thanked God over and over again when it started.... even when he could not feel his hands anymore after trying to build a snow man.
