The House that Grandma Built

Grandma came out at the beginning of the month for Baby Em's blessing and graciously agreed to help put together our Christmas gingerbread house, even though it was no longer Christmas. Here are some shots of her and her charming helpers.

A few days later, our resident gremlins determined that the house had stood long enough and should now be eaten. And like any good demolition crew, they used all tools at their disposal until the job was thoroughly done!

Big sis turned on the treadmill and he climbed on for one second. If my children live to adulthood . . .

I LOVE that the "tool" of choice to dismantle the house for most of the gremlins was their teeth! Awesome!

well, given the options that they could've found (knowing my lovely sons as I do), I'm grateful it was their teeth and not something infinitely more lethal or property damaging!
