HOLIDAY TRADITIONS!!

This has been a very fun and busy month. Paul and us girls went in search for a Christmas tree to cut down. It wasn't very cold and not as much snow as we thought, so it make for an easier trip.

Malerie, Aubrey, and Bailee set out to make the traditional home dipped chocolates. Thanks to Grandma Taylor they have made this an anual event. This year Rachael was involved with her finals so she wasn't able to help with the dipping but did have some time to help make and roll the fondant.

Then there is the Christmas Eve gingerbread house making. Emily,Bret and girls come over and decorate the houses, we usually have a voting of the best but this year we decided that all were wonderful. It is always a fun time!!
