Gingerbread houses.

Hodo and Burbidge Gingerbread contest!!


Ethan and I constructing the Hodo gingerbread house.

Brandi and Cole working hard on the Burbidge House.

The Burbidges and their finish product. If you look closer all four walls are collapsed!! :)
Sorry Brandi.

The Hodo's finish product. Walls still standing, but a skylight in ceiling. hehe.

So after our construction of the gingerbread houses we were all just hanging out and watching the kids run wild. Needless to say Aidan had a poopy diaper and I changed him. As I opened the back sliding glass door to dispose of it I noticed out of the corner of my eye a big hairy animal within a foot on me. Being deathly afraid of "Wild" animals I screached at the top of my lungs and ran in the house. After I contained myself and everyone stopped laughing at me we noticed a little fury raccoon hanging out on my back porch. He hung out for a good 20 minutes trying to figure out what we were. :) It was quite amazing having him just hang out and stare at us.

Brandi and Cole checking out the little guy.

Well after a bit of just staring at us the little guy decided he was done. So he ran off into the dark. We opened the glass door to see where he went and we saw the whole family checking us out. It was quite an amazing site. :)
