Christmas Goodies

Things have been crazy around our house this week. I had my EEG, Kayla turned 5, my visiting teachers came, preschool, trying to finish everything for Christmas, packing for 10 days in Idaho (BTW winter clothes are much bulkier than summer clothes), and trying to get Christmas cookies and candies made. It's been crazy but good family time.

I found this idea for making chocolate covered carmels on a family website and thought it sounded like fun. It was a great project for Kayla! Allie just wanted to eat everything. We had such a good time we kept taking pictures so we got a lot of good ones.

Now, how should we start.


We have chocolate and white chocolate for dipping and drizzling. We ground up mixed nuts and toffee bits. Plus we have Christmas sprinkles for dipping.


Look at Daddy and Kayla go!


Allie wants to make one too.



Say cheese!!!


Look at those pretty carmels.

Caught red handed.


I also melted some Dove chocolate and made chocolate nut clusters-Yummy!


Nate and Kayla got creative with the extra toppings and started decorating these cute Christmas pretzels. They also did some gluten free pretzels.


Now how exactly are we going to fit all these goodies, four people, suitcases, presents, games, and whatever else in the van to come to Idaho?
