Gavin loves to make Adalay laugh. His latest routine is to spin he in her high chair while she cackles hysterically. When that wears out, he will jump up and down in front of her while saying “Chee-Haw, Chee-Haw”. I have no idea what that means but she thinks it is a riot…

Yesterday, while picking up some gift wrap at the store, I passed a cute box proclaiming itself to be a gingerbread house kit. What fun! I threw it in the cart with visions of baking gingerbread dancing through my head.
I was a little disappointed to open the box and find a pre-baked and assembled house (although the size of the box should have been enough of a clue that no baking was needed); all we had to do was apply the cement like frosting. No matter, Gavin loved mixing-up the frosting and watching me struggle to get the stuff to stick to the roof (that stuff dried fast!).

Adalay watched for a bit before deciding she would rather nap.

How long will I keep laughing at that?

    Oh my goodness. You are such a dork. But I love you, anyway. Ha. Whatever! If you weren’t a dork, we wouldn’t be friends! But, all laughing aside, this is hilarious.

    Angie-We wish you were here too! I was feeling a bit sorry for us today thinking about another Christmas so far from family. Any chance y’all are planning another visit?
