In 1998 when Sara was just tiny and I was the advisor in the Beehive class, I agreed to make a gingerbread house for each girl in the class for a Tuesday night activity, if I remember right there were eight of them. Let's just say I jumped into this hobby with both feet not knowing the depth of the pool. The first time I ever made a gingerbread house was when I was eleven at the home of my Merri Miss teacher, and for some reason I guess I felt like that qualified me to teach, (the Internet can be a dangerous tool in the hands of the inexperienced) but it worked out and it began a tradition of a gingerbread house at Christmas, there have been a couple of Christmas' that I couldn't pull it off but I do my best to get one done, but even if I don't get to do one, my kids usually do. They love it and I love listening to them as they decorate and plan and create something that they love. Today we also went to a breakfast with Santa and the play The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, overall a very festive Christmas filled day.
