The Twenty-Four Days Before Christmas – Day 16

Today our special thing was to make gingerbread houses. The kids always love this and this time it seemed they worked for hours on their houses. We had quite a crowd here and the wonderful thing was that it was really nice and warm and so some kids could work on the front porch and some in the kitchen and others on the deck. It was great. Several of the kids were still working on their houses at 7:00 – that would be Bethany and Caroline. Tomorrow I need to get some pictures of the houses as I didn’t really get many today as they finished them so late. It was a really nice day.

The Twenty-Four Days Before Christmas – Day 15

Today our special thing was that I gave all the kids Christmas sheets for their beds. I meant to do this a little earlier so they could use them longer, but somehow let it slip. Anyway, they all liked their new sheets and were excited to get them on their beds. Then I also had some hot chocolate for them with their dinner and it may sound strange how much they enjoyed choosing which one they wanted – there were 12 different flavors. The day ended nicely.
