BAKING DAY WITH GRAMMIE

Yesterday was baking day with Grammie.  Heath is wearing his new apron (made for him by his Aunt Barbara) and he made tree cookies.
Missy Belle in her apron and toque from Grammie (Aunt Barbara made her an adorable pink apron which Belle immediately said "oh my spring apron." Our fashionista) Belle made ornament cookies.
 
 Mr. Mitch asked his Grammie some time ago if she would find a crab cookie cutter as he wanted to surprise everyone with red crabs. I am thinking that this will become the ever popular Christmas crab. I forgot to take a photo with his new apron that Aunt Barbara lovingly made.  The kids loved their new aprons.
 The fruits of their labor - they took a tray home and we kept these for Christmas Day!

COLD BUT MAGICAL NIGHT AT THE BOISE BOTANICAL GARDEN'S WINTER aGLOW 2013

Drew at the Botanical Gardens tonight, this was the "2nd Annual" trip to the Botanical Gardens!!
 
Very cute photo of our Heath and Santa!

At a balmy 3 degrees it was very cold at the Boise Botanical Garden's tonight but it is such a magical place at Christmas made even more beautiful tonight as the trees had snow on them and there was snow on the ground.  This was a great Santa and outside they had a lovely reindeer (her name was Prancer) who was munching away on some reindeer feed.
 
Our Mitchie with Santa, Mitchie better ask for his two front teeth! Too cold for Miss Belle so next year.  Only Drew, Heath, Mitch, Grandma and Grammie braved the weather and it was worth every second.  Great memories!
 Here is Ms Prancer - I was told they have to bring the girls because at this time of year the males have shed their antlers.
