Gingerbread train

Our family has a tradition of making gingerbread houses every year for Christmas and my parents tradition is to provide the materials for us, ( Thanks Mom and Dad :) This year instead of a gingerbread house we had a gingerbread train. The boys loved putting it togeather and of course eating the candy.

What are your family traditions?

A sister a church last Sunday commented on how big my boys are getting which for anyone who has seen Josh can look at that as a funny thing but it is true my boys are getting bigger and are able to do more on their own. Eric can get up on the rocking horse that we have all by himself. It seems that we can't keep Josh dressed in clothes that fit because he has started growing faster. For the first time in Josh's life he is wearing clothes for his age group instead of things that are a year to two years smaller than his age.
