Ben's Christmas Remix

Ben has certainly made this holiday season one of our best, and brings us SO much joy. Here's his gift to all this Christmas season. We're hoping to retire next year when his album goes platinum. Enjoy!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Baker Ben

Ben made us some delicious sugar cookies this weekend. Here are his tips:


First, cut dough into fun shapes,

Then, decorate with LOTS of sprinkles and sugar...

(note the gingerbread man closest to him...)

OR, decorate with frosting - his colors of choice were pink, orange and green.

(yes, if you look closely, that is snot covered with flour on his face - cookies anyone?!)

Then, enjoy cookies with a big glass of milk!




Daddy's Little Helper

Ben is at such a great age right now...especially when it comes to wanting to help out around the house! Any chore is a treat. The first real snow gave him a taste of shoveling and, of course, he LOVED it!
Daddy and Ben - my two helpful boys!


"Shoveling is a piece of cake! Can I always do the shoveling?"

(yes, we are saving this for when he's a teenager)







"Step it up Daddy, I'm getting more done than you and I have a smaller shovel!"
