Holiday Festivities!

Christmas is in full swing at the Crowl house!

This past weekend we braved the crowds to attend the Figgy Pudding Caroling contest in downtown.

We also checked out the gingerbread houses at the Sheraton. I use the term gingerbread because these were incredible creations made by local architecture firms.


Sunday afternoon we made some delicious sugar cookies with Jessie, Mark and James. I mistakenly explained that frosting a cookie included taking a bite out of it shortly after finishing. James thought it was a great activity except he wanted to bite every cookie he frosted!

Monday night our community group went and watched the Christmas ships on Edmonds pier and had a cookie exchange. We have had incredibly sunny weather recently, but it has been cold!!!

This is such a special time of year! In other exciting news... our house is finally being built!
