Next foray into crafting...

Polymer clay. Another quick class at the library, this time making flowers in a tube.

The first attempt turned out pretty good.

So off to Michael's I went to make use of a 50% off any item coupon.

And we're still working on perfecting the technique. We drifted into making little animals....

Day trip to LaCrosse

Dinner and lights. I love both.

Gingerbread houses!

Gumdrop sunflower. Licorice fence. Lighted roof.

Pool (with diving board) in the back. Brrrr.

Hot tub with gingerbread men. 

Flat roof after disastrous roof at library's build you own gingerbread house.

Satellite dish on the roof.

This kept them busy for quite awhile, gave me time to sort of  tidy up the house on Sunday!
