クリスマスの写真 Christmas pictures

あっという間のクリスマス休暇。

I put pictures from Christmas in Idaho. It was so much fun! We had a good time over there with family.
Brit's dad had been sick most of time while we were there, it was too bad for him, I was so sorry for him. Our driving were slightly hard ( For Brit, not slightly, maybe :-p), very long, but it was ok. Kids loved to be with their grandparents, uncles, and aunts :-)

アイダホでのクリスマスの写真をアップします。
これは、喜音と奏大が、聖書の中でイエスが生まれる時のを真似してる様子。喜音がマリアさまで、奏大くんがマリアの夫ジョゼフ、人形がベイビージーザス（赤ちゃんのイエス）らしい。この遊びをクリスマスの間何回もずっとしてました＾＾：

Yukine and Kanata played baby Jesus many times.

さすが、アイダホ、雪がけっこう積もってた。でも去年よりは全然。喜音は毎日毎日雪遊び。
前は寒い寒いっていやがってたのに、やっぱり大きくなると楽しさが勝つようになるのかな？

There were snow in Idaho falls, it was not fewer than last year, which was good for us to drive to there. Yukine was really happy to play with snow. It had been very very cold after we arrived at there, it's like -10F, Even it's like so cold she wanted to play with snow, and sled outside :-o She didn't like to play with snow when she was Kanata's age, I would be disappointed at such a weak child though, she is not anymore.

メインディッシュのステーキ！でかい！毎年この大きさに驚かされる。

Main dish was Prime Rib

Meat~Mmmmmmmmm...♪

クリスマスイブの夜。サンタさんがプレゼントを持ってきたみたい。

Christmas eve. Apparently, santa came to us already :-)

Chirstmas day!!!!!


ハグ〜♪
Hug for Mel :-)


Time to open presents!!!

今年、念願のジンジャーブレッドハウスを作ってみました。クリスマスシーズンになると、クリスマスケーキではなくて、ジンジャーブレッドクッキーというクッキーを使ってお菓子の家を作るのが伝統。これはこの家のために普通のジンジャーブレッドより強化クッキーにしてあるので（粉が多い）あんまり美味しくはないかも。


I made Ginger bread house this time, finaly!! I wanted to make it from scratch last Christmas, but no time to do it, so I really wanted to do this time, and I did it! Yay!

It was good enough for the first time, I think :-)

まずは、パーツを焼いて

ジンジャーブレッドマンという人も焼きましょう〜

今組み立て中。なので、瓶を使って固定中。
ジャ、ジャ〜ン、いろんなキャンディーで飾ってできあがり♪

（手前は余った生地で電車と。。。。。なんだかわかります？？


イカとタコ。）

I made a train for Kanata with extra dough, and a squid and a octopus too. Why?? Just for fun :-p
