Christmas Gifts

The week leading up to Christmas break is somewhat a blur now.  It was filled with parties, get together with friends, and lots of wrapping, surprises, and time together.  This year the little kids had a few friends they really wanted to make sure to put on their gift giving list.  We set to work one day making something fun and useful.  A chocolate snowman with gloves for a hat! 

I was really struggling to find something thoughtful for the teachers as well as something they wouldn't just see as another gift to adorn their desk.  When I saw how cute the friend gifts turned out I decided to make some for them but used socks for hats and paired them with some lotion.  Kelsey also made some for her girlfriends.

At Chase's Class Christmas party one of his friends came up and thanked me for the gloves he said he loved them and now his hands wouldn't get cold since he didn't have any.  I didn't know at the time that Chase knew this and was particularly excited to give this gift to him.  Melted my heart :)
