Annual Craft & Baking Night


About 5 years ago, I started a tradition with Scott's two cousins (Morgan and Taylor). They are like having little sisters that I don't see often enough. So to give their parents a night to themselves(they normally go shopping), we have a slumber party and craft night each year between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Kelsey started joining us a few year back after joining the Humphreys family. Always an all girl party, but the boys don't seem to mind.

Some of the activities we've done:
Concrete Stepping Stones
Pottery & Jewelry Making
Ornaments and Craft painting
Wire Letter Ornaments
This Year - Bulletin boards and fleece blanket

Each year there is not enough time to get everything done, but that never prevents us from trying. Along with a craft project each year, we bake sugar cookies and do lots of decorating with icing and sprinkles. Morgan's favorite part is putting flour on the counter top to roll out the dough. This year we did cupcake instead but was just as much fun.
