Today was busy getting back into the swing of our routine.

I promised Hayley's teacher that I would make Gingerbread Playdoh for her class.

Here is the recipe for anyone who is interested:

Gingerbread Playdoh

2 Cups Flour
1 Cup Salt
1 Tablespoon Ground Ginger
1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
1 Tablespoon Ground All Spice
1 Tablespoon Ground Clove
2 Tablespoons of Vegetable Oil
1 Cup Water

Mix it all together until it forms a dough. The recipe said to refrigerate it, but I hope that wasn't necessary. I double the recipe, but used the 1 Tablespoon of each of the spices and it still smelled WONDERFUL!

I didn't take any pictures of this activity because my camera cord is lost and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get them off of my camera. Thanks to my BFF otherwise known as Super Bibby, I now have an extra cord and you can look forward to pictures from Sydney's concert tomorrow!

We got the Christmas Tree put up, but couldn't find the lights ANYWHERE. We searched and searched and searched. All of this losing stuff is driving me crazy!
