Over the last few years we've made Gingerbread houses at Granny's. We had a great time decorating and eating and laughing. The kids really are creative (and we adults try very hard to not help too much!).
With the rising cost of real Christmas trees and the infestations of critters that has occurred from real trees (one year mom and dad had baby praying
mantis all over their house, we've had spiders a few years in a row) and the needles and watering, we decided to purchase an artificial tree. Those of you who know Kevin and his tree perfectionist, I was surprised at how quickly he chose one (and it was on clearance the day after Thanksgiving!). I miss the fresh evergreen scent, but LOVE having the tree up so early and not sweeping up needles 5 times a day!
