Holding up a House!

After the fun soccer game (see below), we had Dan's Christmas party - since Uncle Steve is the IT guy for Dan's practice and Nana is the office manager, Nana, Papa, Jackie and Steve all went to the bash - leaving Bryan to watch the kids (minus Henry - who is a bit more "high maintenance"). Uncle Bryan came prepared though with 2 gingerbread house kits! The houses didn't want to stay up very good, but Uncle Bryan came up with some help - using my Fezziwig's tea canisters! Thankfully he did, because they really turned out great! Bryan didn't take any pics the night they were building and decorating them, so we took these "after" pictures to capture the moment!

Jack and Nick built their houses together - their finished product looks great!
Alyssa and Luke built theirs together - these two crack me up - they fight like a real brother and sister! But love each other like that too! :)
Dan also snapped a pic of Alyssa with each of her cousins as they were leaving later on this particular day - the Sunday that was snowy and totally yucky!!!

We had to say goodbye, but we had plans to go down to Memphis to see them again after Christmas, so it was an easy adios!
