Gingerbread Man Day

Last week we had “Gingerbread Day”. What fun we had!! Earlier in the month we had “holiday homework” with the children decorating paper cutouts of a gingerbread man. They each had their own unique way of decorating them. They all turned out so cute!!

Unfortunately, Drew was out all week and didn’t get to be in these pictures. He did however, get to decorate a Gingerbread Man.
