Last night my family and I went over to my brother's godmother's house. It was really fun because he family is super funny and her daughter makes me laugh :) So they surprised us with a "fun" craft. It was a gingerbread-making contest. Yeah! So excited! Not really....None of the boys wanted to do it so it was me and Alexa(her daughter) against my mom and Cindy(my bro's godmother). Alexa is this crazy amazingly talented artist, like better than Mr. Deines good. I can't believe how good she is, I thought her colored pencil drawing was a ligit picture. So we basically knocked it out of the park. My mom's gingerbread house kind of fell apart and it was really funny. In case you didn't know, my mom is artistically challenged. The best part was eating the frosting. The frosting we used was like the best frosting I've ever tasted and I ate like half the bag. Then I got a stomach ache but it was definitely worth it. We opened gifts for Christmas(I know it's early but we couldn't meet up any other time) and they got me a Vera Bradley lunch box along with some cute jewelry form A.E. Little did they know that I already have two Vera lunch boxes but I guess three is the charm. I'll probably just return it and try to find something that I don't already have. Hahaha for those that remember my mom and I are obsessed with Vera Bradley. There's our g-bread house...isn't it cool?!?! Those icicles are detailed with sugar to make it look realistic, that is if you couldn't already tell. Alrighty well I'm done so everyone have a fantastic week and I
