Daisy Mom to 4: gingerbread house

Today Gwen was in her school ABC Christmas play. She remembered all her lines and said them perfectly. She was so cute. :)

For an after school snack I surprised the girls with Christmas brownies and hot cocoa with whipped cream, mini marshmallows, and sprinkles. Then after our snack we spent the afternoon decorating "gingerbread" (graham cracker) houses and making little snowmen out of mini marshmallow's. We had too much sugar but so much fun.
