Today we headed to the kid’s school for a night of fun, building gingerbread houses. It was a fun night with cookies and hot chocolate for the kids. Each family had their own Gingerbread House, and got to build and decorate them however they wanted.

It seems our Elf on a Shelf was inspired by the kids time playing in the snow. With marshmallows and tooth picks he built is own ‘igloo’. Though it seems he ran out of marshmallows before he could finish.

Today Ruby and I hit the road for a bit of a drive, I couldn’t help but capture sitting there looking around.

Today we have a picture of Violet her mother took while they headed to Dance class.

Ever since the first launch video I knew that we’d be getting Jacob a Nintendo Switch for his next birthday. Watching this video, for the first time I thought maybe I shouldn’t wait for Jacob’s birthday maybe I should get it for myself on my birthday.

I know I share a lot of pictures of my little girl playing hockey. It’s just that she loves playing so much I can’t help but share the pictures. Tonight we have a collage I made from the doZens of photos I took tonight.

Tonight we have a picture of Jingles, hanging with one of our Christmas Snowmen. I couldn’t help but smile tonight as Violet looked up at Jingles to say goodnight before she ran up to bed. She really loves that little app.

After a weekend with 2 hockey games and a practice, we started the week off right back at the rink. She just can’t get enough time on the ice.
