It's a tradition with Bruce and Sharon to decorate Ginger Bread house's with the Grandkids, but since we have not been there to do so. She makes them and sends them to us so at least we can still carry on the Fam tradition. The kids look forward to it every year :). But it's not the same without Chase and Walker their cousins.
