How bout a whore? and pretty tables, too.

So we Burgess's have been quite crafty lately. Hannah made a gingerbread house today at school. Usually on the car ride home, I tend to tune out the kids' conversations but sometimes a word or two stick out which makes me pay closer attention. Today the word was "whore" but not as you are thinking. Hannah was describing all the parts of her gingerbread house to Zach and she was telling him about the candy canes that she had shaped into a heart for the door.

So Zach says, "oh so kinda like a whore!" "What?" I say from the front. "You know Mom, like heart and door together- whore." "Um," I said, "how about something else?" So now the door on the gingerbread house is called a dart. Which I think is equally creative and will not raise near as many eyebrows.

So for Enrichment on Wednesday night my good friend, Mindie and I decorated a table. I think it turned out super cute if I do say so myself:

The santa hats are cupcake pops from bakerella and we put chips, salsa, and guacomole on the table to distract from the unprofessionalism of the table. Here is cute us by our table (p.s. we had a super cute pose first but Sandy couldn't figure out my camera *wink*)

We are so blessed to have some seriously talented ladies in our ward. Here are some more of the tables. Here is my friend, Sandy's (by the way don't ever make the mistake of messing with her plates hee hee) She did a nativity set in the middle, and I think that the whole thing turned out really classy!

And here is my sister-in-law Andrea's. Seriously, she is so talented it make me sick. She is way crafty and even helped me decorate my kitchen, which I am so very thankful for.


I am way bummed that I didn't get everyones pic, especially Katie's and Jamie's which were so cute! Maybe some of all these girls craftiness will rub off on me...one can hope!
