St Nicholas Day

The kids put there shoes out on the eve of St Nicholas Day. They received giant Gingerbread guys to decorate! As I was going to bed that night, I noticed a piece of paper under Zoey's shoes. She is such a sweet and thoughtful girl, and I don't even give her enough credit. She didn't even tell us about this card she made...

Here Zoey is decorating her Gingerbread Man the next day!

these were so nice... the fun of a house (almost) but they could do it all on their own.

Her finished product:

Max waited a couple of days to do his. Here he is concentrating so hard, with his tongue out...

Zoey helped Max out with the icing part.

We get crazy afternoon light this time of year. This is one of those pictures that I just love for an emotional reason... Love that they are working together and being sweet...

your kids are so thoughtful, amazing, and creative in such different ways.

love seeing them work together, too. my kids are horrible at that--i kind of think they're too close in age for the younger one to not take offense to the older one helping him.
