And had friends over. On Christmas Day I'm planning a gingerbread house decorating activity, so we did a dry run of the event to make sure I had the right materials. At first the guys pretended to not be interested...
but they got into it and helped. Look at these masterpieces!
I was cooking, so Henry pretty much did ours by himself. And he won the "best engineered" award! Take a close look at the roof - rather than waste a bunch of time decorating the roof to look "cute," he spent his time putting ridge caps on the roof to keep out the rain!
And no simple fencing for Henry. Note his classic midwestern fence. When asked why he built this more difficult fence, he responded, "To keep out the cows, of course!" Hahaha!
It was a fun evening, as usual. And a great start to the season.
fun fun!
