Christmas in Wisconsin

Someone always had to be the booger!!

Chatting it up in the kitchen after the Tackeberrys surprised Grammy and Grampy by coming with us.

Last ditch effort for Christmas pictures.

This was after the school program so squirrelyness reigned supreme!! I love this last picture!!

Christmas Program at School

The finished tree with the leaning angel. Still trying to get here up straight!! :)

Bryn singing in the Ensemble.  She also had a solo verse on the last song.  So powerful and awesome!!

Allison had a recitation.  She has such a knack for speaking!!

Caden was actually singing his guts out.  This is the only clear picture I could get. 

Tree Decorating Crew

Notice the recurring theme between the boys...the tongue out. Pills!!

Homemade Peppermint Marshmallows

SOSOOSOSOOOO Yummy!!!

15 minutes of whipping

First attempt and I think I wouldn't use so much red food coloring.  I was going for a candy cane stripe.  It got worse from here and the food coloring pooled...which made it look like blood...so I had to swirl some more and then pulled away from sides and bahhhh shoulda left it.  Oh well, these are sooooooo good.  Food Network and the Alton Brown reciped for homemade marshes.

For my sis...glitter everywhere!!!!

The project before the mess...

Hmmmm didn't think about the glitter sticking to my fingers....

FOREVER......

But the finished project is gonna be soooooo cute!! I must go back and get 2 more candles and use the lime green and turquoise glitter.  Oh so fun.  This is the theme for our Ladies Ornament Exchange Fellowship!! I don't have a picture of my adorable tree but I will get one on here soon.
