Gumdrops, Royal Icing, Gingerbread & Mama C.

Can you get any better than this? Emma doesn't think so. Mama C. came to visit us for several days before Christmas, so we started with this...

Emma LOVES my mom and sugar too, so she was so happy.

I told her to put the gumdrops in the middle of the squares, and she did just that.

Quite impressive for a little one! Emma also made the peppermint walk.

It was so much fun building the gingerbread house together. Emma enjoyed both the creating and the eating.

We made gingerbread ornaments while Mama C. was here too.

Later on, Emma and I hung them on our tree.

We had a wonderful week with our Mama C! Rob and I got to sneak away for dinner...just the two of us. We all took Emma to see The Princess and the Frog, admired the Christmas lights, and Mom and I even made it out shopping...by ourselves!
