Breakfast From the North Pole

What a surprise to wake up to this spread bright and early this morning.  Jingle and Belle are back and they brought their usual snow covered doughnuts and hot chocolate...Christmas Oreos and cupcakes too!

 

Jingle and Belle sure to spoil these two!  Both kiddos received a festive Christmas headband to wear this season and a Christmas watch too...along with some Christmas candy and goodies from the North Pole.  Jingle is excited to play with Ayden's trucks again and Belle is so proud of Allie's new tumbling skills she's learned recently.  We are looking forward to seeing all the fun these two little elves have this season in the Hammerick house!

Gingerbread Villages

Gingerbread houses happened before Thanksgiving this year...it was the only day we could all get together.  Ethan, Leighton, Allie and Ayden created a whimsical gingerbread village for their gingerbread men.  I think more frosting was consumed than used for the house!

Allie designed her house herself and wanted it to not have a roof so she could decorate the inside.  

Ayden decided he wanted two houses and two of everything else this year.

New Skill Alert! Back Handspring!

Allie Girl is on FIRE!  She's moving right on up the tumbling ladder.  Allie LOVES working with her tumbling coach, Coach Tommie...and aims to prove her abilities!  Way to go!!  So proud of her!
