Christmas-y things

With Joe and I both home, and Petra now off for the holiday break, we've been doing some Christmas-y things, like decorating a tree...
 
 
 
... and decorating a gingerbread house. 
 
The only thing we had to make was the icing, which was just my speed.

 

And of course, a visit to the Holiday Express, where Petra had her one and only visit with Santa (by her choice, and who am I to push a visit to the mall?).
 
 
Cora's first train ride...
 
 
 
 
 
 
And of course, gingerbread cookies. Petra took their decorating very seriously.
