Longer than you think! It was time for my annual Christmas craft night with my little neighbors. Inspired by this, I thought we would make gumdrop trees. This was a home-made gift from my
sis-in-law several years ago and it has amazingly held together! I display it every year.
It starts out pretty fun - sorting and tasting each color! I found out from the package those weird flavors are anise and clove.
Dixie the cat had to check out our gumdrop tree making!
12 hours later....JK! But they did take a while. Little one had to take a break.
On to Christmas pennants! These girlies are getting to be experts at sponge painting and hot gluing!

The finished products and two little girls on a sugar high!
Fun times! I was also blessed to get to hear the entire 3rd grade Christmas program, song by song. Nothing like hearing two little girls singing!
Have yourself a merry little Christmas!

Those little girls are very blessed to have you around to do crafts with them and show them God's love. It's been many years since we used a hot glue gun around here, but that sure brings back lots of memories!
They are blessed to have you as a neighbor. I'm sure they really enjoyed it! And we've been hearing the same songs at our house...constantly.
So cute! Love the banners!
What a fun idea! Those girls probably think you are pretty special!
I like that the one tree is taller. Very cute.
Looks like a great success! The girls looked like they were having fun! I can't believe your gumdrop tree is still looking good. Mine has been gone a long time. I need to make another one!
What a fun project. I think I could handle it. HA!
I believe I know those little neighbors and their sweet Mama! I am so doing this with my kids.
