Gingerbread Houses

It is tradition for us to make gingerbread houses on the first snow day in December. The gingerbread kits St. Nick brings are soooo much easier than the graham cracker houses I used to hot glue together!! There is never enough variety of candy in the kits however, so we always pick out more. Note to self....do not make houses before eating lunch next year.

First Grade Christmas Musical

Luke played the part of one of King Herad's advisors in his school's Christmas Musical. His buddy Mason was King Herod. These two may be giving advice to one another ten years from now, but it will probably be about wrestling moves or a girl.

King Mason and his advisors.

Luke and Tyler Take First at Hempstead

Last weekend Luke and Tyler wretsted at the Dubuque Hempstead Little Mustang Tournament. The Little Blazers had a great showing....38 little wrestlers were in action. It was a fun tournament to watch with so many Little Blazers to watch. Our boys both took first place which made it even more fun. This was Luke's first place this season, so he was very proud. He carried his trophy all over the gym show it to everyone. Digging in that chin...ouch!
