Gingerbread Fun Times

I had promised the kids that we would go sledding on the weekend. This was before I heard that the temps were going to be super COLD. On Saturday I picked up a gingerbread house to make up for not going. So on Sunday we sat down and had some fun. This is the result of a couple of hours of their hard work.

Christmas Concert

Last night we went the the kid's annual Christmas Concert. Let's just say we were not disappointed. The Tanner Kids did a wonderful job. Bella, I think, seemed more excited about the concert than Christmas. For the past week that's all she's been talking about.
Bella's class sang 10 Little Angels and If You Can't Wait For Christmas. There were moves and everything to go with the songs. Bella kept knocking off her neighbour's halo. It was pretty funny. Bailey sang Kling, Glockchen, Kling. I guess it's a German Christmas song. Riley, who is also in choir, sang Aussie Jingle Bells. The theme this year was Christmas around the world. It was a great evening full of entertainment.

Bella's Daily Thoughts

In the kitchen baking with mom and dad, Bella comes up to me and says:


Bella "Mom you make the best cookies."

Dad "What about me?'

Bella hesitates "Yeah you too....Kinda."

He Thinks He's Funny

Sunday we are getting ready to go out to do some Christmas shopping. The kids were getting dropped off at mom's place. Riley comes around the corner with two balls in his shirt. (they are suppose to be boobs.) He turns sideways and says:

"You can't hit me."

He starts to laugh.

"I'm a girl." Hands on his hips and bats his eyes. Runs away.
