Last year we started a new Christmas tradition with the Mickelsen's. We all get together to have dinner one night and afterwards we decorate gingerbread houses with the kids. I love this tradition. The kids have a blast designing their houses with icing and candy. When they are finished they are pretty proud of their creations!
I'm excited for this week! The boys are out of school and we have lots of things planned to do. One of our favorites is making sugar cookies together. The boys love decorating them and taking them to family and friends. Another Christmas tradition that we enjoy with the Mickelsen's is putting the star up on the Red Knoll and going for a wagon ride. We also have a Christmas Eve party with my family that has been a tradition for as long as I can remember. It has always been at my Aunt Carole's house in Gunnison. The kids favorite part is after dinner when we have a special visit from Santa!
