Homemade Christmas

This year we decide that it would be fun to have the kids make their gifts for each other. They really were excited about it. Cambrie made a book for Tatum and Jake with a story called "Our House". After you draw the pictures and write the story, you send it off and it's typed and bound into an actual book. It turned out great. Jake had a little help with his gift. Dad helped him make a shooting target for the girls to use. It was perfect because Cambrie got a pink BB gun for Christmas and Tatum got a nerf gun. The target has hanging animals and is backed with a bullet-proof panel. We've had it in our backyard and Cambrie continues to showcase her amazing shooting skills.

Tatum made plates for Tatum and Jake. Here is Jake opening his plate.

Here is Tatum opening up one of her gifts. Of course not everything was homemade. We had a wonderful Christmas and loved that the kids really seemed to learn the spirit of giving through making their own gifts.
