The K Smith Klan: Gingerbread Houses

Kids say the darndest things!

Kylee doesn't want her name to be Kylee anymore. She can't decide between "Diamond" and "Sparkle". We voted Sparkle since it has a "K" in it.
Kally told me that she used to think she was supposed to open her eyes during the "opening prayer" and close her eyes during the "closing prayer". She says she's figured it out now though.
During a Family Home Evening, I asked the kids a question regarding Heavenly Father and Jesus. Kally pointed to heaven with her fingers. Kylee looked up and said "Where, I don't see them."
Kylee wanted a drink. I asked her to wait a minute so I could finish what I was doing. Of course she asked and asked and asked. I finally told her to "hold her horses"! She replied with a serious look "I don't have any horsies, mom!"

Gingerbread Houses

We've made gingerbread houses at Christmas time for the last several years, so I guess that makes it a tradition. We've got it down now though because we go to Walmart the day after Christmas and buy the kits for half off and save them for the next year. We never eat the things anyway, so we figure it works great that way!
