Christmas House


Photo-A-Day #2806

After school today Eva and I worked on this foam Christmas House. I picked it up on deep discount the day after Christmas last year. When I pulled the Christmas stuff upstairs this year she saw it and immediately wanted to make it. Kids and foam stickers, they love em. I’m glad that we had her wait till one afternoon when we weren’t too busy.
