Hanks Makes Banks


We went and saw Saving Mr. Banks. Can't go wrong with Hanks, Thompson and Giamatti. Great film.

Rightful Owner













Time to head home and get our puppies back, and so we return the guest bed to its rightful owner, Gauge the cat and thank her for her nightly purrformances (couldn't resist a cat pun.)

Toyed Out













Some in the group were overwhelmed by this flurry of activity.

Iced Over













Today we made people to live in the houses constructed yesterday. Highlights include Tron gingerbread man (far left - credit Lonnie), Spider-gingerbread man (top - credit me), and Grievous Facial Wound gingerbread man (bottom - credit Payton) the result of a tragic glitter spill. Mari and Amanda were more concerned with making cookies that actually looked like they belonged with Christmas.

With Payton under the weather we stuck with inside activities like the classic gingerbread house construction.

Chimney Stuffer













He must have screwed up the lists this year, I don't remember being this good.
