Friday night Derrick snuck out for a quick fishing trip so Riley and I enjoyed an evening of fun over at the Hutchie house where we tried our best to create a gingerbread house and found out very quickly that it's not that easy (especially with 2 year old hands helping : ).
I think it was a success though and it turned out pretty dang cute! Riley loved himself the hands on fun but the temptation of having candy all over was too much and half of it went in his mouth! He was concentrating so and very proud of his creation afterwards. I think next year we will use graham crackers and less candy : )
Christmas continued with the Theisen party on Saturday and unfortunately both D and I came down with another sinus infection so throbbing headaches, way too many Theisen's packed into a tiny room and loud voices caused a short stay but Riley loved seeing his up north Nana and the Big guy in red and he scored lots of treats, a motorcycle and a Star Wars character complete with "baby nuns."
Please, please, please sickness stay away from our 2 year old and keep him healthy for the big weekend coming up as both D and I were up coughing and blowing our noses til 4:30 in the a.m. Sunday morn! Thank you G'ma and G'pa for watching our little so we could celebrate a b-day and then stay up all night sick! (Exactly what we were hoping to do instead of sleeping- seriously bad timing!) So it's a lazy day at the Theisen house and thankfully a short week ahead!
